| Popis: | Summary Feeding a high-fat diet may have potential advantages by maintaining pH homeostasis during intense exercise; conversely, effects including elevated PCV and increased plasma concentration of total protein may indicate effects detrimental to performance by reducing perfusion of tissues and organs. Six horses were used to determine the effects of an replacement of starch (diet ‘0.00’) with 0.33, 0.67, 1.00 and 1.33 g soybean oil/kg bwt/day (diets ‘0.33’, ‘0.67’, ‘1.00’ and ‘1.33’) on venous and renal acid-base status and fractional clearance (FC) of electrolytes in a postprandial state but prior to exercise. Venous blood and urine were sampled for 3 days at the end of the 28 day periods, in each case 3 h postprandially. Throughout the study, the horses put on weight by 35 kg (P |
