  • You've fit your saddle, you are training correctly, you've eliminated pain...don't underestimate the role of nutrition when it comes to developing muscles. Esteemed equine nutritionist, Clair Thunes, PhD, talks about the critical role of correct amino acid profiles when building muscles and gives advice on how to determine if your horse is getting what it needs to have a beautiful topline.

    Just curious about the background music. It is quite distracting. The information is great,thank you for sharing.

    Grass hay (meaning mostly timothy) is a perfectly acceptable protein source for mature non-lactating horses provided it was harvested at the right stage; the head should be about one-third out of the boot. Over mature hay of any type is a poor protein source.

    Best calorie adder is hay pellets (not alfalfa) very readily available because it is already "chewed"

    One cannot talk about nutrition without addressing Genetic modification and round up factor these days

    Is it GMO Soy, theres no way to know, so Soy can't be good if it's not Organically grown.

      "Back in the day," if a horse needed more protein we'd often add a little Calf Manna to the grain. You might look into this, especially if you have a young/growing horse or a late term/lactating mare.
