🐴 Every horse needs sugar. Yes, really!
Sugar has a bad reputation — but without sugar there's no energy, and without energy there's no performance. It's all about balance.

Sugar provides the energy muscles need to function properly. And did you know that every diet contains sugar? Even if your horse only gets roughage. Because sugars are found in grass, hay, roughage and concentrates. They are the largest and most natural source of energy for horses.

In normal amounts, sugars are no problem at all for healthy horses. But too much is never good for anyone.
Curious how to keep the balance in your horse's diet? 👉 Read all about it in our blog: https://loom.ly/lBtJvjQ

All horses need sugar for general good health and performance. But how much sugar should your horse consume? Find out in this article!

🐴 Sensitive hooves? Address it from the inside and out.
Suspecting laminitis? Always consult your vet first!

Here are the first steps:
🌾 Switch to low-sugar, long-stemmed roughage — no concentrates, no pasture access
🐾 Provide a soft surface and encourage your horse to keep moving
💡 Sensitive hooves can indicate a disrupted metabolism — did you know that sugar in the diet plays a major role?

From the inside: Cavalor LaminAid supports metabolism and helps restore the body's balance quickly.
From the outside: Cavalor PodoSens is a therapeutic hoof oil that relieves, improves the elasticity of the hoof wall and stimulates hoof growth. Apply to the sole and/or coronary band for optimal results.

Together they form a powerful combination for horses with sensitive or problem hooves. 💚

🐴 Sugar in horses: what do you really need to know?
Sugar is everywhere – including in your horse's feed. Our experts Caroline & Fenna answer the most frequently asked questions. Here are the key takeaways:

✅ Roughage = biggest sugar source
It's not the concentrate, but hay that delivers the most sugars on a daily basis. Expect 1000–1500g of sugars from roughage vs. 500–1000g from concentrate.

✅ Overweight ≠ insulin resistant
A horse with excess weight is not automatically insulin resistant. Always have a vet make a diagnosis through a blood test.

✅ Short grass isn't always safer
Overgrazed, short pastures can actually contain more sugar. Good pasture management is essential!

✅ Dry hay ≠ automatically low in sugar
Sugar content depends on many factors: fertilisation, cut, storage… Have your roughage analysed for certainty.

✅ Straw = safe supplement
For horses that need to lose weight, straw is a safe addition – it provides satiety without unnecessary calories.

✅ Avoid nutritional deficiencies
When feeding a low-sugar diet, opt for a low-sugar concentrate or a balancer to ensure your horse gets all the vitamins and minerals it needs.

🐴 Help! My horse has sensitive hooves. What now?
Sound familiar? Your horse walks carefully, avoids hard ground or just doesn't move as freely anymore.
Sensitive hooves seem like a hoof problem — but the cause is often much deeper. In our new reel we explain what's really going on and what you can do starting today.

💙 Scientifically proven: LaminAid improves insulin sensitivity in horses.

🌱 Horses need sugar — but in balance
“Sugar isn’t the problem, as long as the balance is right.”

Sugars and fructans are an essential source of energy for your horse.
But when that balance is disrupted, an excess can disturb metabolism and insulin regulation — increasing the risk of laminitis.

Understanding sugar is the first step. Supporting the body makes the real difference.

🔬 From knowledge to results
After our article on fructans and sugar and the introduction of LaminAid, one key question remains: does it really work?

👉 Field tests in horses with laminitis showed clear improvements, with up to 70% fewer signs of lameness after 30 days (in combination with PodoSens).

🔍 Scientific research also confirms the effect:
✔️ Improved insulin sensitivity
✔️ Positive effect on the response to sugars
✔️ Support of metabolic processes

💡 LaminAid doesn’t just target symptoms, it also supports the underlying cause.

Cavalor LaminAid is a supplement that tackles metabolic disorders through of essential oils. Read here the research behind the product.

🌱 Fructans, sugar… and sensitive hooves
In our previous article, we explained how sugars and fructans can contribute to metabolic imbalances – and why this may increase the risk of laminitis.

But what if your horse is sensitive to this?
👉 Then it’s important not only to adjust the ration, but also to provide additional support to the body.

Cavalor LaminAid works on multiple levels to support horses with sensitive hooves:
✔️ Supports a healthy gut flora
✔️ Helps restore hormonal and metabolic balance
✔️ Promotes blood circulation, including in the hoof

This way, you address the issue not only externally, but from within as well.
💡 Tip: combine with Cavalor PodoSens for optimal hoof support.

Now that you know fructan accumulates in spring grass — what can you do about it? 🌿
Choose the right moment: is the night temperature above 4-5°C? Then morning grazing is the safest option. When nights are colder, it's better to limit pasture access. Build up grazing time gradually and give your horse some roughage beforehand, so it doesn't head out on an empty stomach. ☀️🌙

Extra caution for horses with obesity, insulin resistance or a history of laminitis. 🐴
