What is a barefoot diet? And suitable for youngsters?

[widget]

Good evening all, I've seen lots of posts talking about moving to a barefoot diet, what is it and can I feed a yearling similar to keep feet at optimum condition? Sorry for vague question feel free to point me in direction of posts that tell me about it. Nice glass of Chardonnay for all that help!

A 'barefoot' diet is in fact how all horses should be fed - high in fibre low in sugars and starch. Certainly suitable for youngsters.
