Equine Cushing's disease is an incurable disorder common in older
horses. The symptoms come on gradually, but can be devastating to a
horse's quality of life. It is a progressive disorder that can lead
to fatal infections, colic, muscle wasting, and laminitis. The good
news, though, is that nutritional management can slow the disease
progression and greatly improve the quality of life for the horse
with Cushing's disease. In this sixth volume of her Spotlight on
Equine Nutrition Series, Dr. Juliet M. Getty explains the science
of the disease mechanism, discusses common veterinary options, and
offers valuable advice on appropriate nutritional intervention, a
key component in the treatment of equine Cushing's disease. Her
answers to questions from owners of horses with Cushing's will be
of help to many who struggle to better the lives of their suffering
horses.
