Beet Pulp
I personally buy this at my local farm co-op without molasses!
Horses will eat it, hydrate it with hot water, applecider vinegar and garlic! They lick the buckets clean!

In feeding an easy-keeper (those with the "thrifty" gene :-)), a prone-to-founder horse, or a
potential insulin resistant horse, you can supplement with non-molasses beet pulp.

Potential or suspected insulin resistant (IR) horses may display some of the following symptoms:
excessive drinking and urination, patchy fat and / or large heavy crest, any chronic laminitis,
any laminitis /founder which seems to be from underexercise and overweight.

It is very important to reduce the amount of sugar for the above types of horses. The non-molasses
type of beet pulp generally can have anywhere from 5 to 10% sugar with a glycemic index of 1
which means that it does not have much affect on blood glucose levels. Oats has a glycemic
index of 100 and bermuda hay has a glycemic index of around 20.

From The Horse (2/03) regarding beet pulp written by Ray Geor, BVSc, PhD (equine exercise physiology),
Dipl. ACVIM: "Plain beet pulp is a low-glycemic feed--there is little rise in blood glucose as most
of the energy is provided in the form of volatile fatty acids, products of the fermentation occurring
in the cecum and large colon. Therefore, beet pulp can be classified as a source of "calm energy."

The ratio is approximately one pound of beet pulp equal to 1.5 lbs of average grass hay, with some
estimates being closer to 1 : 2.

One of the ingredients in the Cushings cube is also beet pulp.

Generally the beet pulp is rinsed a couple of times before feeding. It comes in a couple of
different types, shredded and pellets, molasses added, plain. If you cannot find plain beet pulp,
rinse it until it becomes clear. You may want to rinse / soak your hay to relieve it from sugar also.

There should be no other sources of sugar for these horses: no grain products, no senior feed,
no carrots, no apples, no manufactured treats. Some of these horses cannot tolerate alfalfa.

Some owners have had success in supplementing with cinnamon, approximately one teaspoon
per 250 pounds, for IR horses. See the EC Files section for more info.

If you need to feed treats (not that horses need them :-)), here is a list of acceptable treats as
recommended by Dr. Kellon:

[] No grains, flour, processed fats, sugar, honey, molasses.

[] Human foods such as breads, cookies, pasta, or baked horse treats.

[] No fruits.

[] No carrots or apples.

Even a very small amount of the above can set off an IR horse. (BTW, it is suggested NOT to bed on straw.)

Things to use in place of the above:

[] A bit of his normal hay or acceptable pellets (bermuda).

[] iceberg lettuce, celery, mushroom, fresh parsley

[] Small amount of apple peel (no chunks of fruit attached)

[] Tablespoon of low fat, plain, unsweetened yogurt

[] Shells and papery outer covering of nuts (save those peanut, pumpkin seed, sunflower seed shells)

[] Small palmful of shelled peanuts, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, soybeans (not roasted, flavored or fat added)

Adding oil will blunt the glycemic response to a single feeding, but using it chronically
worsens insulin resistance in ponies for sure, quite possibly in horses as well - especially
if they were insulin resistant to start with.

Wheat bran has a high carbohydrate count, so be careful of its use.

Balancing minerals with the hay and beet pulp needs to be taken into consideration.
Rice bran is the best / most concentrated phosphorus source, however, take care in feeding
too much. Poor bone quality is going to be the consequence if you don't. We stay away from
wheat bran with IR horses and use rice bran, SMALL amounts, just to balance the calcium
in the beet pulp and to get some omega 3 fatty acids into them.

For growing horses, a 50:50 mix of oats (some Icelandic Horses don't tolerate oats, my gelding
is an example of this as he gets very "high" in a nervous reactive way with oats) and beet pulp
is good as a base for supplements. This blend is already major mineral balanced and you can
use it as a carrier for the other minerals you need. Beet pulp has a calorie density equivalent to
plain grains but since it soaks up to a very high volume you end up diluting the calories by a
factor of about 4. The moist pulp holds minerals very well.

MY FAVORITE SPECIAL FEED MIX:
I feed this mix once daily. If I have a horse that
needs supplements twice daily I'll hold out one dog food scoop full
for next morning feeding.

Per Horse - 1 to 2 cups dry measured BP pellets without molasses,
Hydrate Beet Pulp with 1 to 2 qts hot water,
1 ounce or so (up to 2 cups) apple cider vinegar,
from 1 teaspoon up to 3 Tablespoons garlic powder/granulated
per horse, 1/3 cup up to 2/3 cup whole flax seed per horse, 1/2 cup corn oil.

Mix into the hydrated mix when ready to feed, 1 cup stabilized rice bran (Satin Finish) per horse,
Equine-Zyme with BG or Sr Equine-Zyme with BG, ABC's Selenium/Vit E,
Humic Shale Ore.

Feed 2 to 3 dog food (1 qt) scoops per horse, in my case as much as needed to
help horse regain some wt if they lost alot. Very safe feed mix. Slow metabolizing
so is great in the winter too, keeps them satisfied and warm.
Gabriele will have some feed mix recommendations too.
I also top dress the two sister mares with ABC PLUS and HOOF and the Gelding gets HOOF also.

I'm mixing for 9 to 11 horses usually.
So I'm guessing for one horse. About 2 qts hot water to 1 to 2 cups dry
Measured beet pulp per horse. 1 oz apple cider vinegar, up to
3 T garlic powder/granulated per horse.

My mixing is in a 5 gal bucket. 2 gallons hot water with
About 1 1/2 to 2 inches in the bottom of 1 gallon jug of
Apple cider vinegar. In the other gallon I put 1 teaspoon per
Horse up to 3 Tablespoons per horse of the garlic and fill
With hot water and shake to dissolve. I use 3 T per horse
Year round of the garlic. If you are just starting out, go with
1 Teaspoon and build up to 3 Tablespoons over a little time
Allowing the horse to get used to it. Mine love it. Smells
Like Doritos and they lick the buckets clean. You want
The beet pulp after hydrated to be fluffy and damp. Not
Soggy and fully hydrated. No little hard pieces preferably.
I just pour in some Corn Oil and stir it all around and put
the lid on and allow it to hydrate for 4 hours or more. I mix
this in the morning and feed at evening feeding and same some
for next morning when I have horses getting supplements
twice daily.

During the winter I feed more than I do in the summer, still
Mostly one time per day at dinner to keep them warm through
The nite and not cold or massively hungry in the morning.
I can easily feed as late as noon and not have anyone colicy
Or massively hungry and mad at me. During the summer the
Garlic and applecider vinegar really help with the insects and
I always give them their supplements daily anyway.

NOTE: Never feed this beet pulp dry. It plumps up fast and
Sticks in their throat and they choke. This requires
An ACE shot in the muscle from your vet to allow them
To relax their throat enough for it to go down. (I've
Done this 3 different times so "don't do it", they will
Eventually choke on it and get very distressed and anxious)
