In this Red Mills Feed Room episode, Spike is joined by Louise Jones from Red Mills to tackle one of the most misunderstood topics in horse nutrition: protein. Does protein really make horses hot? Can you underfeed it without realising? Is soya actually a problem, or just another internet myth? From muscle development and rehab to allergies, topline and performance, this is a straight-talking myth-busting conversation that separates fact from long-held stable lore. Highlights: - Why protein is so often blamed for excitability
- What actually happens when horses are under-fed protein
- The truth about soya, fertility and inflammation
- Protein requirements for young horses and horses in rehab
- Why supplements can't replace a balanced diet
Practical, evidence-based and refreshingly clear, this one is for anyone who's ever second-guessed their feeding program. With thanks to Red Mills for their continued support of the Feed Room series. |
