Science Supplements Natural E & Selenium is a natural supplement for horses in work or on low Vitamin E intake while also needing muscle, respiratory or immune support.
Vitamin E is a powerful antioxidant vitamin that cannot be made by the horse and must be obtained from the diet. Vitamin E is essential for healthy functioning of muscles, the immune system, reproductive function and the nervous system. Many horses may have an increased need for Vitamin E, including those on low Vitamin E intake due to low quality forage, those on diets with added oil, those in work, "older" animals and those used for breeding. Many Vitamin E supplements use the much cheaper synthetic forms of Vitamin E. Natural E, as the name suggests provides a natural source of Vitamin E which has up to double the biological activity than synthetic forms of Vitamin E. Natural E also contains organic selenium which is essential for the optimal activity of Vitamin E. Natural E deliver 3000IU of Vitamin E activity and 1mg of selenium per daily horse feeding rate.
Vitamin E is central to muscle and nerve function, heart health, immune function, lung health and skin health.
Horses cannot make Vitamin E and must get it from their diet. It is therefore essential that sufficient Vitamin E is fed or supplemented.

My farrier has suggested supplement for poor hoof quality with cracks and weak
hoof horn
This supplement contains ingreidents that may partially help hoof quality but this is not it's main intention. I suggest checking out Science Supplements 4Feet and 4Feet Plus as these are more specific for supporting hoof/horn quality.
