is a toxic secondary metabolite produced by organisms of the funguskingdom and is capable of causing disease and death in both humans and other animals.[4] The term ‘mycotoxin’ is usually reserved for the toxic chemical products produced by fungi that readily colonize crops.

Performance Horse Nutrition® (PHN®) was founded in 2002 by Dr. Stephen Duren. The goal of PHN has always been to advance the “science” of feeding horses, and equally important to disseminate that science to our clients in the simplest, most straightforward means possible. PHN prides itself on having trained Ph.D equine nutritionists that are not only scientists, but also horsemen. We understand how to feed horses and our feeds, feeding recommendations, articles and seminars reflect that understanding. Please refer to our list of services to further clarify what we can do for our clients.
