SMART CORN OIL

Corn oil is added to equine diets to increase the energy density without increasing bulk. Studies have shown that regular supplementation of fat as an energy source has a glycogen-sparing effect and has been found to be beneficial in long-distance exercise. The use of corn oil as an energy source is particularly valuable in the hot months of the year because its digestion produces less heat than any other energy constituent in a horse’s diet.

Horses fed corn oil have improved coat quality and shine, and may show an improvement in the flexibility of the hooves Further, studies on corn oil supplementation have shown its effect on decreasing reactivity, which is why it has been touted as “calm energy.”
