When a horse consumes carbohydrates, the pancreas is triggered to produce and release insulin. Insulin regulates and lowers glucose levels in the bloodstream by assisting the transport of glucose into the cells. When we have an Insulin Resistance problem, the cells become resistant to the action of insulin. As blood sugar levels rise, the pancreas secretes more insulin in the attempt to regulate blood sugar. Blood glucose levels begin to rise along with insulin levels when the pancreas reaches the limit of insulin production.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Horses at Risk of Insulin Resistance<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Although all horses are at risk of developing insulin resistance, factors such as age, diet, exercise, and genetics can increase the risk. For example, certain breeds are more conducive to developing insulin resistance. These breeds include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Morgans<\/li><li>Pasa Finos<\/li><li>Andalusians<\/li><li>Arabians<\/li><li>Peruvian Pasos<\/li><li>Mustangs<\/li><li>Ponies<\/li><li>Minis<\/li><li>Donkeys<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Another example is the average age of these horses. If we look at the correlation between age and Insulin Resistance, horses in the 5-15 age range are predisposed to the development of Insulin Resistance. Insulin Resistance is a metabolic issue, so diet and weight also play a significant factor. Horses that are overweight with a body condition score (BCS) between 7 and 9 or who receive diets rich in sugar and carbs have a higher risk of developing Insulin Resistance than a horse who receives regular exercise and a balanced diet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Clinical Signs of Equine Insulin Resistance<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"525\" height=\"285\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/lifedatalabs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/BCS-8-Web.jpg?resize=525%2C285&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Overweight Horse\" class=\"wp-image-7131\" title=\"Horse with High BCS\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/lifedatalabs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/BCS-8-Web.jpg?w=700&amp;ssl=1 700w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/lifedatalabs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/BCS-8-Web.jpg?resize=300%2C163&amp;ssl=1 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 525px) 100vw, 525px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><figcaption>Horse with a Body Condition Score of 8<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Since Insulin Resistance is a metabolic problem occurring within the horse, it may be difficult to see the signs of a problem. A common warning sign that can be associated with the development of Insulin Resistance is an obese horse.&nbsp; Other signs we can look at include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Fast weight gain<\/li><li>Inability to lose weight<\/li><li>Fatty deposits on the body of the horse<\/li><li>Development of a \u201ccresty\u201d neck<\/li><li>Loss of topline<\/li><li>Increased appetite<\/li><li>Excessive thirst and urination<\/li><li>Inflammation<\/li><li>Frequent bouts of laminitis<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Laminitis &amp; Insulin Resistance<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Most Insulin Resistant horses are prone to bouts of <a title=\"Horses with Laminitis\" href=\"https:\/\/lifedatalabs.com\/blog\/2021\/09\/30\/5-tips-to-feeding-horses-with-laminitis\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">laminitis<\/a>. This can be attributed to the abundance of fat tissue, which is extremely common in insulin-resistant horses. In overweight horses, research has uncovered evidence that there is an \u201cinsulin resistance\u201d hormone factor produced by the excessive adipose (fat) tissue that contributes to the cells\u2019 inability to uptake glucose from the bloodstream. Adipose tissue may also contribute to higher cortisol levels.&nbsp; The high glucose and cortisol levels are inflammatory and therefore predispose the horse to laminitis. We highly recommend including a quality hoof supplement in the diet of these Insulin Resistant horses<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Preventing Insulin Resistance in Horses<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The first ten years of your horse\u2019s life often sets the stage for the development of metabolic conditions. Horse owners should start providing the correct nutrients and a balanced diet to the horse at conception. This balanced diet must be continued throughout the horse\u2019s life to maintain health and prevent future metabolic problems. Other factors that can help prevent the development of Insulin Resistance:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Regular work and\/or exercise<\/li><li>Maintaining a healthy body condition score<\/li><li>Feeding grass\/hay with a quality hay balancer<\/li><li>Refraining from feeding \u201csweet\u201d feeds or treats<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Caring for the Insulin Resistant Horse<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There is no cure for Insulin Resistance, but we can help make the life of these horses as comfortable as possible. The first step in this process is to examine the horse\u2019s current diet and develop a feeding plan that will assist the horse in dropping excess weight. This new diet will be focused on reducing the number of sugars and carbs the horse consumes daily. This means no sweet feeds, limited treats, and no grasses with high fructan. Grasses likely to have high fructan content include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Fertilized and growing pastures<\/li><li>Pastures stressed from drought or frosts<\/li><li>Grazing in the afternoon and evening<\/li><li>Tall fescue and ryegrass<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Monitored grazing, dry lotting, and grazing muzzles may also be necessary depending on the horse and pasture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Adding exercise to the horse\u2019s daily routine is the next step. If the horse is not accustomed to exercise, it should be introduced slowly, 2-3 times a week, and built up over time. Eventually, we want the horse to exercise daily with body condition steadily improving.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Supplementation for Insulin Resistance<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a title=\"Support for Equine Insulin Resistance\" href=\"https:\/\/lifedatalabs.com\/blog\/2022\/02\/17\/support-for-equine-insulin-resistance\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Supplementation is vital for horses with Insulin Resistance<\/a>, especially when we begin cutting calories from the diet. We want to cut calories without cutting the horse\u2019s required daily nutrients. If the horse\u2019s diet is not balanced nutritionally, we are not providing the support needed to maintain our horse\u2019s health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As mentioned above, a <a title=\"Quality Hoof Supplements\" href=\"https:\/\/www.lifedatalabs.com\/products\/hoof-supplements\">quality hoof supplement<\/a> is essential for insulin-resistant horses to help improve hoof wall density. A denser hoof wall is more resilient to the effects of laminitis and may reduce the risk of founder. One good option is to utilize a <a title=\"Hay and Pasture Balancer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.lifedatalabs.com\/barn-bag\">hay and pasture balancer<\/a> alongside a hoof supplement to replace the missing nutrients from the low-calorie diet. Another option is to use a quality hoof supplement and a supplement specifically formulated to support horses with Insulin Resistance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"525\" height=\"311\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/lifedatalabs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/IRFormula_FFDS_Web.jpg?resize=525%2C311&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Life Data\u00ae Insulin R Formula and Farrier's Formula\u00ae Double Strength\" class=\"wp-image-7132\" title=\"Life Data\u00ae Insulin R Formula and Farrier's Formula\u00ae Double Strength\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/lifedatalabs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/IRFormula_FFDS_Web.jpg?w=768&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/lifedatalabs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/IRFormula_FFDS_Web.jpg?resize=300%2C178&amp;ssl=1 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 767px) 89vw, (max-width: 1000px) 54vw, (max-width: 1071px) 543px, 580px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><figcaption>Life Data\u00ae Insulin R Formula and Farrier&#8217;s Formula\u00ae <em>Double Strength<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Life Data\u00ae Recommendation<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a title=\"Farrier's Formula Hoof Supplement\" href=\"https:\/\/www.lifedatalabs.com\/farriers-formula-double-strength\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Farrier\u2019s Formula\u00ae Double Strength<\/a> and the new <a title=\"Supplement for Insulin Resistance\" href=\"https:\/\/www.lifedatalabs.com\/life-data-insulinr-formula\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Life Data\u00ae Insulin R Formula<\/a> work in conjunction to support horses with Insulin Resistance by supplying active ingredients to assist with glucose metabolism, fat metabolism, insulin action, and help reduce inflammation.
