Barastoc KER Low Gi Low Glycemic Horse Feeds Stud Cube 20kg

A low starch, fully forti¬fied feed for breeding and performance horses in a highly palatable and convenient cube. Research has shown that low glycemic feeds produce more balanced energy levels due to lower blood sugar and insulin spikes following a meal. It provides energy from fat and digestible ¬ fibre, with a reduced proportion of energy from starch resulting in a lower glycemic response to feeding. The horses digestive tract is designed to slowly digest and absorb mainly ¬ fibrous feed. Feeds with high levels of starch and sugar are absorbed quickly, resulting in sudden changes in blood glucose and insulin levels.
