The conclusion was that decreasing the
fiber content and increasing the grain part in the goat
daily ration would lead to higher contents of the undesirable
trans-C18:1 fatty acid in milk. Manipulations
of goat feeding regimes towards higher contents of
beneficial unsaturated fatty acids in goat milk fat by
feeding special feed supplements like protected fats
can be used to “tailor make” “functional foods” and
even further improve the nutritional value of goat milk
