Does eating carrots help you see in the dark?

AnswerThis story began during the second world war when the British government wanted to explain away their success at shooting down German bombers and hide their use of radar. There is even some limited truth in the story. The protein rhodopsin found in the eye breaks down into retinal and opsin when exposed to light and reforms when back in the dark. Retinal is made up of vitamin A, which is found in carrots, and a severe lack of vitamin A in the diet can therefore result in night blindness.

The government was actually trying to encourage people to grow their own vegetables.

Why do horses eat carrots?

No! Never give your horse a diet that only feeds carrots. This can cause colic, a condition that can be fatal to horses. If you feed your horse a hard feed (such as pony pellets, chaff, economix, etc...), try and cut down on the amount you feed him/her slowly. Immediate changes in diet can 'stun' the stomach and also cause colic. Example: You are feeding your horse three scoops chaff and two scoops pellets. The next day you will feed two and a half scoops of chaff and one and a half scoops of pellets.

You will decrease the amount of feed you give your horse but you must also take into consideration how much your pony/horse is working. I would suggest speaking to your local vet or horse riding instructor (or even your local saddlery staff!) about the changes in your horses diet.
