Nutrition Update: Recently Published Research Papers

Thanks to David Van Doorn of Cavalor Equine Nutrition Research (http://www.cavalor.com) for providing a list of recently published research papers from around the world on the relationship of nutrition to horse health and science in his company’s newsletter.

These papers can be accessed through PubMed or by a search through a university library that has access to the necessary databases and subscriptions, or by contacting the authors. Some papers may be in languages other than English. These papers and authors are not necessarily connected to Cavalor in any way; Cavalor is providing these references as a service.

Cavalor is sponsor of the European Equine Nutrition Congress; select papers from the proceedings of the congresses are available in a separate section on the Cavalor site.

Cavalor provides English language translations and access to papers from Europe and other parts of the world that might not otherwise be available to English-speaking students and researchers. They provide a wonderful service and I always look forward to David Van Doorn’s research summaries.
