Knowing how your horse digests his food is an important step you must take to keep your horse healthy.  Healthy horse digestion is very similar to that of a human’s digestion.  They digest part of the food through their mouth and tongue while chewing, break down food in the stomach with stomach acid, and then move it into the small and large intestines.  The key to keeping this process functioning is through proper health and nutrition.  You will want to make sure your horse has plenty of clean drinking water, clean hay, and a proper fitness routine.  Taking these steps will help lower the chances of your horse developing digestive problems.
