Using plant essential oils (EOs) contributes to the growing number of natural plants' applications in livestock. Scientific data supporting the efficacy of EOs as anti-inflammatory, antibacterial and antioxidant molecules accumulates over time; however, the cumulative evidence is not always sufficient. EOs antioxidant properties have been investigated mainly from human perspectives. Still, so far, our review is the first to combine the beneficial supporting properties of EOs in a One Health approach and as an animal product quality enhancer, opening new possibilities for their utilization in the livestock and nutrition sectors. We aim to compile the currently available data on the main anti-inflammatory effects of EOs, whether encapsulated or not, with a focus on mammary gland inflammation. We will also review the EOs' antioxidant activities when given in the diet or as a food preservative to counteract oxidative stress. We emphasize EOs' in vitro and in vivo ruminal microbiota and mechanisms of action to promote animal health and performance. Given the concept of DOHaD (Developmental Origin of Health and Diseases), supplementing animals with EOs in early life opens new perspectives in the nutrition sector. However, effective evaluation of the significant safety components is required before extending their use to livestock and veterinary medicine.
使用植物精油（EOs）促使天然植物在畜牧业中的应用日益增多。随着时间的推移，支持EOs作为抗炎、抗菌和抗氧化分子功效的科学数据不断积累；然而，累积的证据并不总是充分的。EOs的抗氧化特性主要是从人类角度进行研究的。尽管如此，到目前为止，我们的综述首次将EOs在“同一个健康”方法中的有益支持特性以及作为动物产品质量增强剂进行了结合，为其在畜牧业和营养领域的利用开辟了新的可能性。我们旨在汇编目前关于EOs主要抗炎作用的可用数据，无论其是否被封装，重点关注乳腺炎症。我们还将综述在日粮中添加EOs或作为食品防腐剂以对抗氧化应激时其抗氧化活性。我们强调EOs在体外和体内对瘤胃微生物群的影响以及促进动物健康和生产性能的作用机制。鉴于“健康与疾病的发育起源”（DOHaD）概念，在动物生命早期补充EOs为营养领域开辟了新的前景。然而，在将其应用扩展到畜牧业和兽医学之前，需要对其重要的安全成分进行有效评估。
