In this episode, the discussion centers around 'emotional horse feeds' - horse feed ingredients that may cause horses to become hot, hyper, or excitable. Dr. Rambo explains how changes in diet, especially those involving sugar and starch, can significantly affect a horse's behavior. Exploring the reasons behind this, this podcast covers how diets high in sugar and starch can disrupt a horse's gut microbiota and potentially lead to digestive upset, resulting in what might be perceived as emotional behavior.

Additionally, the episode debunks myths surrounding protein's impact on behavior and discusses the role of forage and the importance of low-starch and high-fat diets in moderating a horse's energy levels. The dialogue further addresses common misconceptions about feed ingredients, offering practical advice for owners seeking to manage their horses' diet for more stable behavior.
