All the information I received was great
and was helpful in other ways. However, the posting I was looking for spoke of
how the stomach would create anti…(something) and something to do with ulcers.

Empower has stabilized rice bran (calcium/phosphorus balanced) mixed with flax
in an amount that has a healthy Omega3/6 ratio.

I read the same thing somewhere, but the article I read
showed rice bran to be in wrong omega-balance group for horses! Flax seed
was in the best category.
Also, with rice bran, the calcium/phosphorus ratio has to be addressed (approx.
double calcium), or it leeches calcium from the bones. I don't think flax
has that issue. But, one of the few brands of rice bran to be
"calcium-balanced" is Equijewel, because of their unique
extrusion process. However, all the feed stores around here quit carrying it,
so I used to have it delivered directly from the maker, Kentucky Equine
Research(KER).
