Re: Just added Oats - supplement

Hi Sherry,

I don't know how much iodine or iron is in it -- not in the guaranteed analysis, though listed in the ingredients. And the selenium level is nearly 13 ppm! I never like to go over 5 ppm.

Plus the amount of vitamin E, vitamin D, and B vitamins is not listed.

So all in all, it's difficult to evaluate.

And I would not "just add oats" to any horse's diet (except in the case of highly active horses -- and then in very moderate amounts).

Sorry I couldn't be more specific.

All the best,

Dr. Getty
