In this episode of The Aquaculture Podcast Show, we explore how guanidinoacetic acid (GAA) supplementation can improve growth, immunity, and stress resistance in intensive white shrimp farming. We also breaks down GAA’s effect on feed efficiency, antioxidant activity, and survival rates under disease pressure. Learn how a small additive can support better yields and system resilience.

Inspired by the 2025 article titled "Guanidinoacetic Acid Significantly Improves Growth, Antioxidant Capacity, and Nonspecific Immunity for Juvenile Litopenaeus vannamei" by Lin, H., et al.
