To investigate the dietary effects of chlorogenic acid (CGA) on the growth performance, lipid metabolism, antioxidant activity, and non-specific immunity of Asian swamp eel (Monopterus albus) during the domestication stage, a 28-day feeding experiment was conducted to supplement with CGA at levels of 0 (Cont.), 250 (CGA 0.50%), 500 (CGA 1.00%), and 750 (CGA 1.50%) mg/kg·bw by feeding with yellow mealworm (Tenebrio molitor). Compared with the control group, the addition of 250–750 mg/kg of CGA significantly increased the weight-gain rate (WG) of M. albus, and the CGA 1.0% group displayed the highest value. The content of hemoglobin and high-density lipoprotein in all CGA groups was markedly elevated (p p p p M. albus during the domestication stage, and the optimal CGA supplementation for T. molitor as biocarrier bait is 500 mg/kg, corresponding to 405 mg/kg.
