-What exactly are essential amino acids and where is protein found in the equine diet?
-What is the difference between protein quantity vs. quality?
-Concerns and trends regarding protein and the consequences of overfeeding it
-Research updates: The role of protein in the pathology of equine insulin dysregulation
