I will answer your query about the relationship between insulin resistance and laminitis in horses, but I must note that the provided search result offers a definition of laminitis only. Therefore, I will define laminitis and discuss its causes, but I will not be able to make any claims about its relationship to insulin resistance.
Laminitis is a condition that affects the hoof of animals such as horses and cows. It is characterized by inflammation and damage to the laminae, which are structures inside the hoof. Laminitis can result from various factors, including poor diet, obesity, or diseases associated with inflammation, and can be extremely painful and even fatal.
