Ask Dr. Kellon

To me, good nutrition boils down to the difference between what will keep a horse alive, even reproducing, and what supports their maximum potential for health, growth and performance. There's more difference between the two than you might suspect. Meeting the horse's basic nutritional requirements can have a dramatic impact on everything from coat, skin and hoof health to immune function. To do that, you need to actually know what you're doing with feeding your horse.
