Product Information

All dogs need vitamin E for a normal metabolism, growth and development, for immunity and hormonal functions. Dogs cannot produce vitamin E in their bodies, and a sufficient amount of this vitamin is not always received through food. Therefore a dog may benefit from a vitamin E complement.

Vitamin E is particularly important for dogs on a BARF diet, as raw food does not necessarily contain enough of this vitamin. The more fat in the dog´s food, the more important it is to provide enough vitamin E, as vitamin E is an antioxidant preventing fats from becoming rancid. Dogs in heavy physical work/training and dogs used for breeding will also benefit from an additive with vitamin E.

Horses get vitamin E from their natural food, i.e. fresh pasture grass. The stability of vitamin E in dry hay is, however, weak, and therefore this vitamin should be added to the feed of every horse. The need for vitamin E is greatest in pregnant and lactating mares, foals, young and growing horses, as well as sport horses. Horses get vitamin E from their natural feed, i.e. fresh pasture grass.
