Science & Stewardship
The Foundation of GrazeStat™ and EZ Grazer™
GrazeStat™ builds upon proven equine research in natural feeding behavior, stress reduction, and welfare-based management—transforming scientific understanding into smart, real-world technology.
The concept behind GrazeStat™ and the EZ Grazer™ Ultra Slow Feeder isn’t just innovation—it’s evolution grounded in data. This page provides open-access research, expert articles, and educational resources explaining why slow feeding, behavioral monitoring, and digital insight are critical for equine health and performance.
These public available resources collectively show that controlled-feeding designs minimize hay waste, extend feeding time, and promote calmer, healthier horses.
Why Slow Feeding Matters
Supporting Digestive Health Through Natural Intake Patterns:
Horses are grazing animals designed to eat small amounts over many hours each day. When hay is consumed too quickly, the digestive system becomes unbalanced—raising the risk of colic, ulcers, and behavioral stress.
Hydration and Behavior
The Hidden Health Indicators
Water intake and feeding behavior are powerful indicators of equine wellness. GrazeStat™ will capture these patterns digitally to reflect hay consumption and hydration levels
Building the Scientific Bridge to Telehealth
From Evidence-Based Management to Data-Driven Care
Research supports the need for technology that interprets behavior objectively. GrazeStat™ combines validated science with smart analytics to deliver digital observation evidence for equine telehealth.
'By aligning proven equine research with emerging technology, GrazeStat™ delivers the missing bridge between data and decision-making.'
GrazeStat™ is in active development and will comply with all applicable state and federal laws governing veterinary practice and telehealth.
All use of data and collaboration features will operate within an established Veterinarian–Client–Patient Relationship (VCPR) and follow AVMA, FDA, and state board guidelines.
GrazeStat™ is not a medical device and is intended solely for research, wellness insight, and veterinarian-supported decision-making.
