The Aquaculture Podcast Show - Methionine & Metabolic Efficiency in Salmon | Ep. 56

the aquaculture podcast show Apr 13, 2026

In this episode of The Aquaculture Podcast Show, we explore how methionine shapes metabolism, liver health, and genetic regulation in Atlantic salmon fed plant-based diets. Traditional feed models are challenged as nutrition influences epigenetics and long-term performance. We uncover hidden metabolic bottlenecks and their impact on future generations. Listen now on all major platforms!

Inspired by the 2023 article titled "Methionine: an indispensable amino acid in cellular metabolism and health of Atlantic salmon" by Espe, Marit, et al.

What you'll learn:  

  • Methionine metabolic role
  • Plant diet limitations
  • Liver lipid transport
  • Oxidative stress pathways
  • Epigenetic programming effects
