Rounds With Doc T – "No-Grain Challenge Review" - 2022 December 26th
This was sent to me via email. Very interesting and insightful questions that I touch on in this Rounds. These could easily be addressed in more detail in an AMA, which I think I will do in January.

Doc-t replied to the discussion PSSM1 in the forum No Grain Challenge 3 years ago
PSSM is still a mystery in horses because, in type 1, there is a confirmed genetic mutation that causes an abnormal construction of glycogen. However, there are other causes of PSSM with similar signs (muscle cramping) caused by, as yet, other reasons other than the genetic mutation of PSSM 1. For now, these other causes are listed as Type… Read more

This report is great news! Thank you for sharing. Would you add how long he has been on the new diet program? I am guessing one year.
I understand that it takes determination to stick to it through a hard winter. However, the reward is a healthy horse. What does your vet think?
Of course, now you are obligated to tell others . . . LOL.… Read more

Doc-t replied to the discussion Horse’s odd odor on SBM? in the forum No Grain Challenge 3 years ago
Thanks for this update. It is hard to give excess protein in the diet (at least in humans). 1 pound of SBM raises the total protein to just the minimum, so I don’t believe it is excess protein.
If you bathe the horse, does the odor go away? If not, then where is the smell coming from? If it resolves with bathing, the microbiome (skin?)… Read more

Doc-t replied to the discussion I have a couple questions… in the forum No Grain Challenge 3 years ago

Such as Vitamin E or continuing SBM indefinitely due to nutrients lost in the drying process of hay? (this is common where I live. Drought ridden area, small property- the pastures have been trodden down to year-round dry lots without a… Read more
