Soaked beet pulp, and Wellsolve L/S, along with soaked hay. Feeding non-molasses beet pulp to foundered or metabolic horses is a pretty common thing in the U.S. but from what I gather on the forums, it is not very common in other countries.Here is a thread with a comprehensive post by Katy Watts that may be of interest to you: http://www.horseshoes.com/forums/arc...php/t-873.html |

Holland produces a heck of a lot of sugarbeet and have been feeding it to stock (including horses) for decades.

![]() For a few years, I have noted UK posters admonishing the feeding of "sugar beet" to metabolic equines. And it's also funny that the name is always changed from beet pulp to "sugar beet." Apparently the word "sugar" in the description makes it sound all the more egregious. You have chastised me publicly on multiple occasions for feeding "sugar beet" to foundered equines. You never have produced any proof or scientific data stating that beet pulp is dangerous for the metabolic equine, and in fact, experts in the field report directly opposite of your personal findings Thomas.The veterinarians I use agree that non-molasses beet pulp is a VERY safe feed for foundered or otherwise insulin resistant equines. Dr. Elanor Kellon has reported that beet pulp has been shown to initiate very little to no glycemic response in the equine, meaning no insulin surge. |

Trust me though I am not Too Simple or Too ****** to know a sugar beet from a beetroot or a professional from someone who hasn't got a clue! Clue: If folks at laughing at your bulletin board and your horses are peeing bright red then you've probably got it VERY wrong! Quote:
Don't bother answering though because I know you can feed sugarbeet extracted pulp to horses as a decent forage alternative and even if they've got laminitis. Quote:

Re: Help Needed Here!
Well Thomas, bless your heart!
You've also continually stated that you initially "told me about beet pulp" but you are wrong. My mother and I were feeding beet pulp to horses YEARS before I ever acquired a foundered horse. I created a thread asking others how THEY soak beet pulp, and you took that to mean that I had no experience with it at all. You've been corrected endlessly but still spread the lie. Asking other people how THEY do something, is not the same as having no experience. I thought people could share ideas on how they soak and rinse beet pulp the EASIEST. You sure enjoy twisting the truth to being something it is not.I'm not interested in littering up the boards with childish he-said/she-said. Whatever baggage you're carrying around in your wheelbarrow, just drop it Thomas. Move on. ![]() |
