Low % NSC vs. NSC Intake in Horse Diets
from The Equine Connection Podcast · host equineconnectionpod
How we are feeding horses has changed so much over the past few decades. In one major shift, and the one you keep hearing about, is, low NSC (sugars and carbohydrates). Really, what nutritionists are talking about is the percent of NSC in that type of feed. In this week's podcast, we explain what the percent NSC in a diet (or horse feed) means and how to evaluate if it is a low, medium or high amount of NSC. The goal of any horse feeding program is to feed lower AMOUNTS of NSC, and how much you feed will depend on your horse. An important topic for any horse owner.
