I have been feeding "Mare Plus" but my regular feed store carries "Min-a-Vite" (Blue Seal product). This is much cheaper and contains everything in mare plus as well as magnesium,sulphur,sodium, potassium biotin, niacin, folic acid, choline and fluorine. Fluorine is listed in mare plus as "0". Why would they list it? Is this useful for teeth as fluoride is for us? The other difference is mare plus lists vitamin B6 and the other is B12. What are the common names of these? We are in an area low in
selenium so this is added to the feed and is in the mare plus. Is there another name for this? Can you give too much?
