Equine Vitamin E-1000 with Selenium
* Antioxidant formula for horses that supports circulation, the immune system, and cardiovascular function.
* Vitamin E and Selenium work synergistically to support the production of antibodies, maintain a healthy heart and liver, and support cell membranes and enzymes. Vitamin E and Selenium help to maintain and support proper muscle function and health.
* Recommended for:
-Joint and cardiovascular support, reproductive or fertility problems, and geriatric or immune compromised horses.
* Vitamin E is a potent fat-soluble antioxidant that helps the body defend against free radicals, supports immune system function as well as proper cardiovascular, circulatory, and reproductive functions. Vitamin E inhibits the oxidation of lipids in cell membranes
and protects red blood cells, muscles, the heart, liver, adipose tissue, and the brain. Vitamin E supports oxygen utilization and protects cell membranes from free radical damage. It supports synthesis of Coenzyme A and ATP, normal blood clotting, improved athletic performance, maintains nerve health, strengthens capillary walls and is excellent for skin and hair/coat health. Signs of Vitamin E deficiency can include infertility (in both mares and stallions), heat cycle problems, neuromuscular impairment, and shortened red blood cell life span.
* Selenium increases the effectiveness of Vitamin E in the body and is also a potent antioxidant. Selenium supports the immune system by aiding the body’s defense against free radicals via glutathione peroxidase. Selenium helps to inhibit the oxidation of
lipids. It works synergistically with Vitamin E to support the immune system, regulate fat metabolism through the action of thyroid hormone, support antibody production, maintain healthy heart, liver and pancreatic function, maintain tissue elasticity, and support red and white blood cell count.
* Free radicals contribute to many of the health problems that are associated with aging. As the horse ages, the immune system becomes less efficient. Older horses become more prone to respiratory diseases, allergies, and infections.
* We have chosen to keep our Selenium at a lower level for flexible use, especially since the soil content of Selenium can fluctuate significantly. Our formula allows you to take into account your animal’s existing diet (nutritional program, feed, pasture).
* Equine Vitamin E 1000 with Selenium is a highly palatable apple flavored powder in an alfalfa base.
