Equi-VM (Uckele)
Equi-VM provides a concentrated source of vitamins, trace minerals, probiotics, and digestive enzymes for horses. According to Uckele, it is designed to supply vitamins and trace minerals most likely to be deficient in the equine diet.
This product is not a complete mineral and vitamin supplement because it does not contain added Calcium, Phosphorus, or Salt. The manufacturer states these ingredients are left out to make the product work for balancing a wider range of diets. Consult with a nutritionist to determine whether you need to add these minerals if using this supplement.
This supplement contains 1,000 mg of natural Vitamin E per serving, which is sufficient to meet the needs of most horses. In addition, it provides 5 mg of biotin per serving. The recommended amount of biotin to support hoof growth is 20 mg per day; a nutritionist may recommend additional supplementation.
A typical serving provides 675 million CFU of Lactobacillus Acidophilus probiotics and 8.4 billion CFU of live yeast cultures. Higher feeding rates of probiotics are recommended to achieve beneficial effects.
For a 1000 LB (450 KG horse), this supplement is recommended to be fed at a rate of 28.35-56.7 g per horse per day. This loose powder can be top-dressed on your horse’s feed.
