The “Never Quite Right Horse” – Early Signs of Metabolic Trouble
Many horses show small issues that owners often dismiss: a bit of fecal water, stubborn skin problems, recurring hoof abscesses, or just being “moody” under saddle.
Yet these can all be early warning signs of serious metabolic imbalance.
In this talk, Dr. Christina Fritz explains how to recognize subtle markers in coat, hooves, eyes, and behavior that point to deeper liver, kidney, or gut problems – long before the horse becomes clinically ill.
You’ll learn how modern feeding practices overload the metabolism, why so many horses struggle with chronic health issues today, and what steps you can take to support your horse’s health naturally.
As an added bonus, participants will receive complimentary four-week access to the 6-hour online course “Healthy Horse Feeding” — a comprehensive deep dive into the principles of metabolically sound, species-appropriate nutrition.

About the speaker:
Dr. Christina Fritz is a biologist specialized in equine nutrition and metabolism. For more than 20 years, she has been working at the intersection of science and practice, translating complex research into practical solutions for horse owners, therapists, and veterinarians.
She is the founder of www.sanoanimal.com a knowledge platform for equine health. Christina has published several books and countless articles on horse feeding and metabolic diseases, and is a sought-after speaker at international conferences and workshops.
Her mission is simple: to help horses live healthier lives by giving owners and professionals the tools to recognize problems early and to feed and manage their horses in line with their natural needs.
