Article Synopsis
- The study investigates how adding dietary cholesterol might help salmon cope with the stress of rising temperatures due to climate change, focusing on its effects on growth and survival.
- Salmon were subjected to a controlled temperature increase over several weeks while being fed either a regular diet or diets with additional cholesterol.
- Findings showed that dietary cholesterol had minimal impact on growth and stress levels, though one cholesterol diet slightly reduced survival rates, indicating that some salmon can still thrive in warmer conditions.
