If you have come to this website you have already realized that common, mainstream horsekeeping practices do not work for the special needs of a horse that is high risk for, or has laminitis. I hated the helpless feeling I had early on when all the standard reqcommendations for 'the best' horse diet made my sick ponies worse. I had to learn equine nutrition all over again. These lectures and books focus on the diet and management of horses and ponies who cannot tolerate the amounts of sugar, starch and fructan that the average horse can. The science is explained in detail so you can understand and make more informed decisions. Thank you for caring enough to learn about how to keep our 'special' horses sound and healthy.

Reducing the calories from sugar, starch and fructan in your horse’s diet, and increasing exercise are the cornerstones of the SaferGrass program for laminitis prevention and rehabilitation. Once a horse has had laminitis, there is increased risk for future attacks. Pro-active owners may find these products useful building blocks as part of the foundation of a new management program to address this increased risk. These products contain ingredients I have found useful on my own insulin resistant, chronically laminitic ponies, as well as the laminitic horses owned by my friends and clients. I feel they support important aspects for successful recovery from laminitis: 1) provide commonly deficient trace minerals and amino acids to feed growth of healthy new hoof horn, 2) provide minerals that may assist in correction of abnormal glucose metabolism, 3) provide anti-oxidants to bolster systems exhausted by dealing with long term inflammation, and 4) increase blood flow within the foot.
