Yellow Fat Disease, also known as Pansteatitis, is a condition that affects animals, particularly those in the wild, and is characterized by the inflammation and hardening of adipose (fat) tissue. The disease is often associated with the consumption of rancid or oxidized polyunsaturated fatty acids, commonly found in certain types of fish and fish oils. Yellow Fat Disease is a condition that highlights the importance of proper nutrition and the quality of dietary fats in the health of animals. It is a preventable condition, and steps can be taken to minimize the risk of its occurrence by ensuring the freshness and quality of dietary fats provided to animals.
