Ep 157. | DOES CARBOHYDRATE LOADING WORK FOR PERFORMANCE HORSES? - The Starch Myth

40 min24 april 2026

In this episode, Bryan & Peter take on a big question - does carbohydrate loading actually work in performance horses, or is it a myth borrowed from human sport?

They break down how horses digest starch, what volume is the limit in the small intestine, and what really happens when you try to “load up” on grain before work.

If your horse feels flat one day and explosive the next, this episode explains why and how to fix it by feeding in line with physiology.
