🌿 The Power of Vitamin E for Your Horse’s Performance 🌿

Vitamin E is an essential nutrient for horses—especially those in work. It’s a powerful antioxidant that helps protect muscles and nerves from damage, supports recovery after exercise, and keeps your horse performing at their best.

Why it matters:
When horses work hard, their muscles produce free radicals. Vitamin E helps neutralize those free radicals, preventing muscle soreness, stiffness, and even long-term damage.

Signs your horse may be low in Vitamin E:
•Muscle weakness or soreness after light work
•Poor topline or muscle loss despite good feed
•Stiffness or reluctance to move forward
•Lack of stamina or quicker fatigue during rides
•Neurological issues such as incoordination

Performance boost:
Horses with adequate Vitamin E tend to recover faster, maintain better muscle tone, and stay more comfortable in training and competition.

💡 If you suspect your horse might be low in Vitamin E, a simple blood test from your vet can confirm it. Supplements or access to quality pasture can make a big difference in their health and performance.

Your horse gives you their all—make sure they have the nutrients they need to shine! ✨🐎
