Retinyl Acetate (Vitamin A) - Feed Ingredient

Retinyl acetate is a synthetic form of vitamin A, a fat-soluble vitamin essential for vision, immune function, reproduction, and skin and tissue health in horses. It is a stable and commonly used source of vitamin A in fortified feeds and supplements.

In equine nutrition, vitamin A supports normal growth, cell function, and the maintenance of healthy mucous membranes. Horses typically obtain vitamin A from fresh forages in the form of beta-carotene, which is converted into active vitamin A in the body. However, stored hay loses vitamin A content over time, making supplementation with retinyl acetate beneficial for horses with limited access to fresh pasture. Because vitamin A is stored in the liver, excessive supplementation can lead to toxicity, so levels should be carefully balanced in the diet.

The following equine feeds, supplements and products contain Retinyl Acetate (Vitamin A) as an ingredient.
