Even if you feed livestock a totally optimal diet (e.g. grass for cows) they'll convert it more efficiently (read: they'll grow bigger from the same amount of feed) if you supplement it with low dose antibiotics.

It's shockingly dangerous and should be illegal.

According to Wikipedia, it is illegal in the EU since 2006, and in Sweden since 1986 (and partly so in the US since 2017).
