Top-dress onto daily grain ration.
INDICATIONS
Elevate Maintenance Powder is ideal for horses maintained on diets composed largely of processed grains and stored forages. Such feedstuffs usually have low vitamin E content; thus, horses require vitamin E supplementation.
Vitamin E status can be determined by having your veterinarian measure the serum tocopherol levels. Serum tocopherol levels below 1-2 µg per ml are considered deficient in most animals.
FEEDING DIRECTIONS
Feed daily at a rate of 100 IU to 500 IU per 100 lb (200 IU to 1,000 IU per 100 kg) of body weight. The feeding level depends on the type of horse, level of activity, and nutritional and management practices that affect vitamin E needs. Please consult your veterinarian regarding the specific amount to be fed to your horse(s). One scoop delivers 1,000 IU of vitamin E.
One scoop = 7 grams.
FEEDING RECOMMENDATIONS
Top-dress onto daily grain ration.
