glycogen and tying up

[Misxfire@aol.com]

Hi Tom (real glad to see you back), Heidi, Sarah, Beth,

       I am really interested in the carb supplement discussion.  Do any of 
you have any new ideas about the role of glycogen metabolism in tie-ups?  I 
have a tie-up gelding who does fine with regular exercise but have always 
been interested to know why some horses have this problem and others on 
irregular exercise programs don't.

Thanks for your time.

Judy Etheridge
