The impact of nutrition on the health and welfare of the horse, whether performing at the highest athletic level or for leisure use, cannot be underestimated. To maintain good health and optimum performance the horse requires much more than just the correct levels of nutrients. In addition to avoiding an excess or a deficiency of nutrients the 'packaging' and form in which the horse ingests these nutrients plays an important role both for the horse’s body and mind. Incorrect nutrition contributes to occurrence of colic, obesity, metabolic syndrome, laminitis, rhabdomyolisis and stereotypic, abnormal or unwanted behaviours. This book explores the impact of nutrition on health and welfare in horses. The chapters provide an up to date review and evaluation of our current understanding in the areas below. -Nutritional requirements and physiology -Nutrition, behaviour and welfare -Promoting health and preventing disease -Gastrointestinal health -Metabolic disease -Functional nutritional ingredients -Nutrition and performance This book is the 5th volume in a series conceived through the European Workshop of Equine Nutrition (EWEN) which falls under the umbrella of the Horse Commission of the European Association of Animal Production (EAAP). The aim is to facilitate discussion between equine nutrition scientists and to create a bridge between scientists, practitioners and the horse industry. The ultimate aim is to support good equine health and welfare practice through the best nutrition science possible. As such this book is a valuable compilation of knowledge for research scientists, veterinarians, nutritionists, academics and students.
Het museum Meermanno-Westreenianum bezit een kleine, maar boeiende afdeling Egyptische oudheden, die de Haagse verzamelaar W.H.J. Baron van Westreenen van Tiellandt (1783-1848) in enkele decennia bijeen wist te brengen. Dit boek bevat een uitgebreide studie over een van de topstukken uit de Egyptische collectie van het museum: de beroemde papyrus van Vivant Denon met de tekst van Het Boek van het Ademen. De auteurs, Jan Quaegebeur, hoogleraar egyptologie aan de Katholieke Universiteit Leuven en Mar Coenen, aspirant van het Belgisch NFWO, zijn erin geslaagd een aantrekkelijk boek te schrijven dat niet alleen vakgenoten bedient, maar ook toegankelijk is voor de geinteresseerde leek. Stap voor stap worden wij meegenomen op een speurtocht naar de herkomst en betekenis van dit overblijfsel uit de Oudegyptische dodenliteratuur. Boeiend wordt verhaald hoe deze papyrus in de Napoleontische tijd naar Europa kwam en op welke wijze dit historisch document uiteindelijk in de collectie van Baron van Westreenen belandde. De volledige vertaling van de papyrus geeft de niet-egyptoloog tenslotte letterlijk toegang tot de tekst.
