description <i>Salmonella</i> infections in poultry production are a significant and pervasive concern, posing substantial risks to both animal and human health. This comprehensive literature review examines the current body of research on the use of various nutritional manipulations as a promising strategy to effectively control and mitigate the prevalence of <i>Salmonella</i> in poultry. The review covers a range of dietary interventions, particularly the utilization of probiotics, prebiotics, organic acids, and phytochemicals, and thoroughly evaluates their efficacy in reducing <i>Salmonella</i> colonization within poultry flocks. Furthermore, the review delves into the potential underlying mechanisms of action for these nutritional approaches to control <i>Salmonella</i> and the far-reaching implications for overall food safety. By providing a thorough analysis of the existing literature, this review aims to elucidate the most promising nutritional strategies that can be employed to control <i>Salmonella</i> in poultry production, ultimately safeguarding animal welfare and public health.
