I read a article written by Dr Kellon stating that taurine has been shown to help with IR in recent studies. So I got some from my best horse but I don't know how much to give. I think I joined in 2004 but am not sure Peggy in Minnesota

Would love to know which article you were reading. A lot of us use Methionine in out custom supplements, a precursor to taurine according to Dr Kellon in this article. Resources - The Many Functions of L-Methionine in the Equine Diet - Uckele Health & Nutrition Most of the discussion about taurine on ECIR yahoo has been about it's calming qualities. https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/EquineCushings/conversations/messages/39741 Might you have a link to the article you read? Thanks! Nancy C in NH ECIR Moderator 2003 FACT: Insulin resistance (IR) is the failure of insulin sensitive cells to respond to “normal” levels of insulin. See E. M.
