Vitamin E for horses is a powerful supplement, obtained from a natural source to ensure best bioavailability and the most potent antioxidant properties.

What does Vitamin E do for horses?

Vitamin E protects cellular function in the body and has a special role in supporting muscle, nerve, fertility and immune function.

When would I supplement my horse with Vitamin E ?

Performance horses, particularly those who are prone to muscle soreness, ty up, as well as horses with limited access to fresh grass may need extra vitamin E supplemented to their diets.

Horses with Shivers and other nerve disorders or muscle weakness also benefit from supplementation of Vitamin E.

Vitamin E aids the uptake of selenium and in addition aids immune and reproductive function. It is always advised that electrolyte and selenium status is checked if your horse is becoming frequently sore with work (and despite adequate conditioning).

My feeds contain Vitamin E, do i need more?

Most feeds and forages are a good source of vitamin E. However, some horses may require more. Typically, a horse needs 100o-2000 IU from the diet. If this is in shortfall or the horse is performing at a high level this can be increased. It is best to evaluate the amount in your feeds and whether your horse is on reduced fresh, green grass that could be limiting the amount before considering more.
