Welcome to Feeding Horses, sponsored by Tribute.
Last month our conversation with Michael Lindinger, PhD, focused on electrolytes especially during the hot and humid months of summer. If you haven’t done so already, be sure to go and give Episode 5 a listen. And while most horses sweat well during the summer some do not and suffer from anhidrosis–a medical condition where the body cannot sweat normally. To learn more about anhidrosis and the nutritional aspects of it, Stephanie talks with Martha Mallicote, DVM, MBA, Dipl. ACVIM, who has researched anhidrosis extensively. Dr. Mallicote, previously at the University of Florida, just became the Associate Dean of Academics and Student Affairs at the University of Tennessee, in Knoxville.
