The Effect Of Chromium Supplementation On Metabolic Response To Exercise In Thoroughbred Horses
Chromium is essential nutrient in humans and at this time its only known role is that is a component of the glucose tolerant factor (GTF) which potentiates the action of insulin. This paper discusses the study performed to determine the affect of Chromium supplementation on metabolic response in exercised trained thoroughbreds.
The Influence of Time of Feeding on Exercise Response in Thoroughbreds Fed a Fat-Supplemented or High-Carbohydrate Diet
Recent research has demonstrated that feeding supplement fat to thoroughbred horses altered blood glucose and insulin levels compared to a grain based diet and these changes influenced substrate selection during a standardized exercise test.
Responses Of Blood Glucose, Lactate And Insulin In Horses Fed Equal Amounts Of Grain With Or Without Added Soy Bean Oil
When fat is substituted for carbohydrate isocalorically in a horse’s ration blood glucose and insulin response to feeding is reduced. This paper discusses an experiment designed to evaluate the affects of fat on glycemic response.
