Abstract: Anthocyanins are a kind of water-soluble natural pigments rich in plants, which are favored by scholars because of their high safety and strong ability to scavenge free radicals. This paper mainly reviews the structure and safety of anthocyanins, their possible digestive and metabolic pathways in ruminants, and the mechanism of enhancing the body's antioxidant capacity and relieving oxidative stress, and discusses its feasibility as a new feed additive for ruminants. This review will provide theoretical references for related research.
