Warm, sunny days keep pasture sugars (NSCs) high, and heat- or drought-stressed grass can spike them further still. Across the season, pasture-associated laminitis accounts for over half of all U.S. laminitis cases, and researchers now attribute more than 90% of laminitis to underlying metabolic and endocrine disease driven by sugar and starch. For the owners of America&#8217;s large population of Quarter Horses, Morgans, ponies, and easy keepers, managing sugar isn&#8217;t a spring chore&mdash;it&#8217;s year-round.<\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify\">\n<li>\n<p class=\"caps\">54% of U.S. laminitis cases are pasture-associated<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>90%+ of laminitis is driven by endocrine \/ metabolic disease<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>All-season pasture sugars stay high through the summer months<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong>Where Bifid fits<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Bifid&#8217;s grain-free, low-sugar\/low-starch feeds swap high-starch grain for highly digestible fiber, keeping the post-meal sugar spike&mdash;and the insulin response linked to laminitis&mdash;low and steady. With summer being peak season for showing, hauling, and hard work, it&#8217;s a way to fuel performance and hold condition without feeding the very sugars that put susceptible horses at risk right through the warmest months.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong>What owners are seeing<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Customers switching to Bifid report steadier digestion, fewer loose-stool days, and&mdash;because the feeds do more of the nutritional work&mdash;a shrinking shelf of standalone supplements. Owners report savings of hundreds of dollars per week after making the switch. &#8220;After switching our horses to Bifid we removed several supplements from the feeding program. Our horses maintained condition, digestive health improved, and we&#8217;ve significantly reduced our weekly feeding costs.&#8221; Suzanne, Wellington, Florida, USA<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong>Backed by European feed heritage<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Alongside its own Bifid line (established 2020), the range curates trusted European equine brands&mdash;H&ouml;veler (since 1905), Derby (since 1956), Equinova (since 2003), and Derbymed (since 2006)&mdash;giving American owners access to formulations refined over generations of nutritional science.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong>Service &amp; quality<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Bifid ships nationwide via FedEx and UPS with free home delivery, a 30-day money-back guarantee, 24\/7 customer care, and free nutrition support.
