Kentucky Equine Research Nano -E: Natural Source Vitamin E Antioxidant for Horses, 450 mL

Kentucky Equine Research (KER) Nano-E is a powerful water-soluble liquid vitamin E antioxidant in a unique, rapidly bioavailable form. Vitamin E is an essential component of body-wide antioxidant defenses and plays a vital role in immune, cardiovascular, circulatory, neuromuscular and reproductive functions. Vitamin E is often recommended for horses without access to fresh green pasture, as well as those with neurological or neuromuscular disease. KER Nano-E uses advanced nanotechnology to create a rapidly available and absorbed source of vitamin E that enables administration to be timed to provide peak antioxidant protection to performance horses. The term vitamin E refers to a family of substances. Among these, only two-alpha-tocopherol and gamma-tocopherol-possess the potent antioxidant properties that make the nutrient so important to the equine diet. Alpha-tocopherol is the most biologically active, and is the form found most abundantly in the horse's body. As with many other nutrients, the different forms of natural and synthetic vitamin E have quite dissimilar properties that make some more useful than others. Supplementation with synthetic vitamin E (dl-alphatocopherol acetate) is the least effective in elevating plasma tocopherol levels in horses. However, primarily because of its lower cost, synthetic vitamin E is frequently added to equine feeds, even though it offers quite limited bioavailability to the horse.
