Specifications
Target Information
Circulating concentrations of the incretin hormone, glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) correlate with an increased insulin response to carbohydrate intake in animals with Equine metabolic syndrome (EMS). Circulating concentrations of the principal incretin hormone, GLP-1, are lower in horses, than humans, as is their capacity to supplement post-prandial insulin secretion. Research has shown that active GLP-1 is increased in insulin-dysregulated ponies, compared to normal ponies, and likely plays a role in metabolic dysfunction.
