@Zevida It sounds like we still haven’t totaled the minerals you are getting right? Very important.
Here’s the link to Pete Ramey’s advice - through Dr. Kellon etc - on the total minerals recommended for laminitis - also inflammation. Makes it kind of easy to total.
From the article…
" My “Poor Folks Cheater Diet” is inferior to custom balancing, but will make a dramatic difference anywhere in the world for pennies per day. Per 1,000 pounds (450kg) body weight, feed daily 450mg of zinc, 150mg of copper (double these two if iron is high in ground and water), plus 2 tablespoons of plain white loose salt. If the horse is eating hay instead of grass as the primary forage, add 3,000 iu of human vitamin E oil pills and a cup of fresh-ground or stabilized flax every day. If the horse is having uncompensated sugar problems (splat-footed horse on green pasture, etc.) add 10 grams (less-than-level tablespoon) daily of magnesium oxide - decrease magnesium oxide dose if stools loosen - discontinue magnesium after 6 weeks, pending forage testing to balance with calcium and phosphorus.
2013 Edit: While feed testing and custom balancing continues to be the best you can do, a new product California Trace Plus (877-632-3939) is covering most of the key nutritional problems in most areas of the US. It is a well-crafted concentrated supplement, with high copper and zinc, no iron, decent E levels, antioxidants, an impressive amino acid load, high A, high biotin, and (optional) probiotics added. It has quickly become my go-to supplement, and I have seen excellent results in my area and all over the US."
