Wow, we never had any problems with recoveries when using it.  I've used it 
on a horse that did Tevis and numerous other rides while on it, and so have 
several of my friends. Nobody has had any problems with their horses 
recoveries -- in fact, some reported that the horses were doing better than 
ever before.

As with anything new in your horses feed, introduce it gradually.  If it 
doesn't work, don't use it.  And don't get carried away, if you take a 
couple of weeks and work up to a cup twice a day mixed in with some beet 
pulp your horse should put on and maintain weight just fine.  If not, add 
in a little grain......it just depends on what you are trying to 
accomplish.  Just don't feed 4 cups twice a day mixed in with a ton of 
grain and expect your horse to behave normally :P.
