First, the palatability and acceptance of various GCs (2 syrups, 1 granulate) offered for free intake were compared to glucose mixed in a chaff-based diet. Subsequently, syrups were administered by syringe and compared to an oral glucose test using naso-gastric tubing (tube OGT) to investigate the glycemic and insulinemic responses. Second, these variables were compared in the best performing GC-formulations (granulate further optimized to pelleted formulation and 1 syrup) and a tube OGT. All GCs were administered with equivalent amounts of 0.5\u00a0g glycemic carbohydrates per kg body weight.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Only the GC pellets were consumed completely by all horses (consumption time 5\u2009\u00b1\u20092\u00a0min). When administered by syringe, the GC syrup also was well accepted. The insulin concentrations at 120\u2009min correlated significantly between tube OGT and GC pellets (r\u00a0=\u00a0.717; P\u2009&amp;lt;\u2009.001) or GC syrup (r\u00a0=\u00a0.913; P\u2009&amp;lt;\u2009.001).
