Controlled Carbohydrate Technology TM is a research based formulation technique that utilizes digestible fiber sources and vegetable oils, in combination with precise grain selection, to create low-starch, low-sugar horse feeds. Lower starch and sugar levels (soluble carbohydrates) have been shown to reduce the risk of insulin resistance, colic and founder. It also promotes proper bone development in growing horses, improved muscle performance and calmer behavior.

Feeding Instructions
Feed grain at regular intervals and at least twice daily. The amount of feed to provide depends on forage quality and horse factors such as activity level or stage of growth or reproduction.
o maintain desired condition, you may need to increase or decrease feeding rate of LEGENDS® Mare & Foal Textured. Changes should be made gradually, and no more than a 10% adjustment at one time.
