DAC FORMULA E AND SE VITAMIN E/SELENIUM SUPPLEMENT 20 LB

dac® formula E and Se provides a balanced vitamin and mineral profile to support normal muscle function, immune function and
reproductive function. Adequate amounts of vitamin E and selenium prevent the detrimental interaction of peroxides with lipid
membranes of the muscle cell. Vitamin E – is a fat-soluble vitamin that has an important role as a potent anti-oxidant, it has a
concurrent yet independent role with selenium, an essential trace mineral, together they act to maintain normal muscle function,
aid in the prevention of muscular disease and perform as anti-oxidants to protect body tissues, particularly cell membranes,
enzymes and other intracellular substances, from oxidation-induced damage. Horses with an inadequate reserve of anti-oxidants might
experience poor immunity to disease, muscle soreness or stiffness during an exercise bout and prolonged recovery following hard
work. Organic selenium – selenium is an essential trace mineral that plays a critical role in metabolism, healthy growth,
reproductive health and immunity, it also acts as a powerful anti-oxidant to prevent fatty acid oxidation which can cause tissue
damage. Selenium also plays a role in the control of thyroid hormone metabolism, research has shown that Sel-Plex®, an organic form
of selenium, is more readily absorbed and retained than selenium in inorganic forms. Sel‐Plex® is the only organic selenium to be
reviewed by the FDA. Selenium deficiency may be a factor in causing muscle conditions otherwise known as tying-up, in young horses
selenium deficiency can manifest as a condition known as white muscle disease.
