Nutrition plays a significant role in equine health, often more than many owners realise. Feeding horses an improper diet, akin to human junk food or unsuitable pasture, can lead to chronic inflammation as the body reacts to these ingredients as if they are pathogens.
Today, EGUS is no longer considered a single disease, but rather two distinct conditions: Equine Squamous Gastric Disease (ESGD) and Equine Glandular Gastric Disease (EGGD).
This modern distinction helps owners and veterinarians make more accurate diagnoses and implement more effective management strategies.
Just because a horse is older does not necessarily mean he requires a special diet; aging is not a disease; it is a normal process.
Remember if your horse is an older horse and working 4-5 times a week there is great demand mentally and physically.
