Lasix Part 2: Have We Been Looking at EIPH the Wrong Way?

<p>In my first Lasix episode, we covered what Lasix is, how it works, and why it remains one of the most controversial medications in horse sports. This week, we&#39;re taking the conversation a step further. Recent research has challenged some long-held beliefs about Exercise-Induced Pulmonary Hemorrhage (EIPH) and asks a difficult question: Have we become so focused on preventing every trace of bleeding that we&#39;ve stopped asking what bleeding actually means? We&#39;ll discuss what researchers are rethinking about EIPH, whether all bleeding is harmful, how Lasix has shaped the racing industry, and what the future might look like if the sport continues moving toward medication-free competition.</p><p>Links &amp; Resources:</p><ul><li><p>Follow me on Instagram and TikTok at Rfr_rodeo for behind-the-scenes content</p></li><li><p>also visit our sponsors Tacktical and Ranch Dress’n using code Rfr_rodeo and Rocket Donkey using code RachelF10</p></li></ul><p>If you enjoyed this episode, please subscribe, leave a review, and share it with your rodeo friends!
