An analysis of the literature sources, where the main results of the use of antioxidants in the poultry industry is given in the review article. Adaptation of a bird occurs due to its use of exogenous and endogenous antioxidants under stress. Scientists put forward the natural concept of antioxidant protection of cells. The essence of this protection lies in the fact that antioxidants prevent the leakage of free electrons in the mitochondria of cells by purifying the original radicals. Biologically active compounds, which include antioxidants, are divided into two groups: natural and synthetic. Natural antioxidants in poultry farming are safer, cheaper and can prevent oxidative reactions in food during storage and do not cause metabolic diseases in animals and birds, are a good alternative to synthetic ones.
