In this episode, Peter and Bryan dive into why feed timing can make or break performance, digestion, and overall gut health. Should you fuel up before the ride, after, or both? Which type the hard feed or hay?

Let’s break it down so your horse stays healthy, happy, and performing at their best.

In this episode, Bryan and Peter dives deep into the overlooked risks hiding in many processed horse feeds.

Including:
✅ Why oxidised oils are pro-inflammatory
✅ And why CEN keeps oil OUT of their feed - so you can add it fresh, stable, and Omega-3 rich when your horse needs it most.
