Key topics include the influence of glucose on the equine brain, the effects of sugar and starch on hyperactivity, and the role of various nutrients like magnesium and B vitamins in nervous system function. They also explore the gut-brain axis and its impact on mood and behavior, dietary issues that might subtly affect horse performance, and the emerging research on DHA supplementation in foals for improved brain function.
