According to a report published by the American Farriers Journal, approximately 50% of horses in the US are now classified as overweight, leading to an increase in insulin-related health issues. However, with early intervention, insulin resistance in horses is treatable in most cases, the report suggests.
To assist owners in recognizing insulin resistance in their horses, Hoof Room outlines several indicators to watch for - unexplained weight gain in the neck and shoulders or excessive thirst and urination are among the warning signs that should prompt owners to seek a veterinary consultation.
For horses that have been diagnosed with insulin resistance or a metabolic disorder, chromium supplements are an option that can improve insulin sensitivity by making it easier for glucose to enter the horse’s cells and be used for energy, the guide says. Additionally, chromium can facilitate the uptake of glucose into muscle tissues and fat, helping to prevent spikes in blood sugar levels.
The guide also suggests several chromium supplements to improve metabolic function in horses and notes the factors that horse owners should consider when choosing the right supplement for their horses. They are particularly advised to seek supplements that also contain other beneficial nutrients for a more comprehensive approach to metabolic support. Owners should also take into account customer reviews and ensure the manufacturer is reputable before purchasing a supplement.
“Chromium supplements can be a valuable tool in managing insulin resistance in horses,” says the guide. “By choosing the right supplement, combining it with a balanced diet and regular exercise, and working closely with your veterinarian, you can help your horse achieve better metabolic health and reduce the risk of complications associated with insulin resistance.”
