Pureform Vitamin E

Vitamin E is one of the most important, yet often overlooked vitamins. Deficiency has been implicated in causing a variety of disorders such as rhabdomyolysis (tying-up syndrome), equine lower motor neuron disease, white muscle disease (with low selenium levels), and degenerative myelopathy (a neurologic disease in young horses). Horses with normal levels of vitamin E also have been shown to have better immune responses to vaccines than horses with lower vitamin E levels. Oral supplementation of vitamin E is safe, as there have never been reports of toxicity from vitamin E. The alpha-tocopherol form is the most bio-available for horses to utilize.

Daily Maintenance: Our recommended dosage once or twice per day. 1 level teaspoon = 2000 IU/1,800 mg dl-alpha-tocopherol acetate.
