Ok-so I've been riding for 40 years, and teaching and training for 20. I have always based a horses' jump on his athletic abilities, scopiness, etc. I've seen the solid, 2'6 packers that can stretch to 3' but are better suited to the 2'6 job.
Bioactive vitamin D or calcitriol is a steroid hormone that has long been known for its important role in regulating body levels of calcium and phosphorus, and in mineralization of bone.
Vitamin D acts in increasing the absorption of Calcium in the small intestine by increasing the synthesis of albindin (CBP) and subsequently opens calcium channels as a result, allowing more calcium to become absorbed through the small intestine.
