- For mature(working) horses, aim for 6.6 IU per kilogram of body weight (Vitamin D is key to keeping a horse’s body functioning properly. It helps maintain plasma calcium concentrations and promotes calcium and phosphorus absorption from the intestine. It also helps mobilize stored calcium, with an indirect impact on bone mineralization).
- For growing horses, the recommended daily needs decrease with age: Horses at 0-6, 7-12, 13-18, and 19-24 months of age should receive 22.2, 17.4, 15.9, and 13.7 IU per kilogram of body weight, respectively. (https://thehorse.com/)
