It has been proven
conclusively that Selenium and Vitamin E are essential
nutrients in your horse's diet affecting both health and
performance. Selenium is a trace mineral essential to life
and proper nutrition. Coupled with Vitamin E, Selenium is
essential for cell membrane integrity and proper cell
metabolism. Selenium supplementation improves breeding
efficiency. Brood mares need Selenium to maintain their
health and assure proper development of the foal. Selenium
is vital to foals and the rapidly growing young horse to
achieve proper muscle, bone, and cartilage development.
Horses in training need increased levels of Selenium and
Vitamin E to maintain proper cell metabolism to minimize the
deleterious effects associated with the stress of hard work.
Whether to sustain life, guarantee good health, improve the
general condition of your horse, or to assure peak
performance, Mega-Sel aids proper nutrition.
Proper nutrition is the basis
for peak performance. Extensive field testing and research
has indicated that higher levels of Selenium are associated
with improved performance. It has been proven that Mega-Sel
is capable of safely raising Selenium to levels associated
with peak performance.
Most feeds and forages do not
contain adequate amounts of Selenium to ensure good equine
health and performance. Even areas thought to be Selenium
sufficient often receive feeds grown in deficient areas.
Supplementation is therefore a must in most geographic
areas.
The need for additional
Selenium increases for horses in training. Training may
cause muscle fatigue which leads to ligament and joint
injuries. Veterinarians agree that there is often permanent
muscle damage in horses that have experienced problems such
as myositis and tying-up. Your horse(s) should be on a
continuous Mega-Sel program to adequately supply Selenium
and assure peak performance.
