In this episode of the EquiScience podcast, I sit down with the team from Mad Barn—Priska, Fran, and Scott—to dive deep into the fascinating world of equine nutrition. We discuss the unique digestive systems of horses and highlight just how critical forage quality is. I loved exploring the nutritional needs of performance horses, the role of supplements, and ways to spot nutritional deficiencies.

We also tackled some common myths in equine nutrition, unpacked the importance of understanding conditions like insulin resistance and PSSM, and talked about how to test for them. Plus, we debated the pros and cons of natural versus synthetic nutrients. To wrap things up, I got to hear some inspiring success stories and share thoughts on why more research in equine nutrition is so important.
