Tannins can acts as anti-nutritional factor by provoking an astringent reaction in the mouth and by making food unpalatable. They can complex with and thus precipitate proteins in the gut, reducing the digestibility or inhibiting digestive enzyme and microorganisms. It also interferes with dietary iron absorption. Tanins(water soluble polyphenols that are present in many plant foods) responsible for decrease in feed intake, growth rate, feed efficacy, net metabolizable energy and protein digestibility in experimental animals.
