does topspec balancer have enough vitE&selenium 4 an azatoria sufferer

[Kezza]

does topspec balancer have enough vitamin e and selenium in it so that you would not have to feed and vit e and selenium supplement alongside it to a horse who has had azatoria in the past? I just read the topspec website and saw this statement:

"Powerful levels of Vitamin E and selenium to act as anti-oxidants, neutralising
the harmful presence of free radicals and, together with high quality protein, optimising muscle development and function. Vital for horses on high oil diets and those prone to ‘tying-up’. "

In the long run, it probably would prove as cost effective as feeding my pony his general purpose supplement and his vit e and selenium supplement!

I should thing it would be fine without the supplement.

I would have thought so - but ring them and have a chat. They are very nice at Top Spec.

You may want to check the levels of Vitamin E and Selenium, for high oil supplementation it is recommended to feed 1mg per 1000 pounds of horse weight of selenium and 1iu Vitamin E per day, (be careful you can overdose with selenium, so I would check levels) I personally prefer to feed it separate then add all other vitamins at normal level but I also feed additional oil.

have you tried Saracen's Re-leve...its a complete feed that has got all the right nutrients for horses that get Azortoria.

We feed ours on top spec feed balancer, their conditioning cubes and hi fi lite, last year they were even on their conditioning flakes too, all i can say is they have never looked better! Really would recommend the brand.
