EQ-Vitamin E 1L

EQ-Vitamin E is a targeted supplement without selenium, making it ideal for feeding plans where the horse’s selenium needs are already met. Vitamin E is a powerful antioxidant that plays a vital role in a horse’s health, especially for muscle function, fertility and the immune system. For horses in heavy training, an extra dose of vitamin E is particularly beneficial because it protects muscles from the free radicals produced during intense physical exertion. These free radicals can otherwise cause oxidative stress, leading to muscle damage and delayed recovery.

Vitamin E also helps support muscle building and speeds up recovery after strenuous exercise. Because the vitamin E content in hay decreases during storage, a supplement may be necessary to ensure the horse gets enough of this important nutrient. Additionally, extra vitamin E is recommended when fat-rich feeds, such as oil, are included in the ration to prevent oxidation of the fatty acids, which can reduce nutritional quality and negatively affect the horse’s health.

Summary
EQ-Vitamin E is an important supplement for horses that don’t need extra selenium but still require the protection and benefits that vitamin E provides. It acts as an antioxidant that protects muscles during physical exertion, supports muscle growth and aids recovery. It’s also beneficial for fertility and the immune system. Since the vitamin E content in hay can decrease during storage, and when fat-rich feeds are included in the ration, a supplement can be crucial to ensure optimal health and performance.
