white muscle disease

I'm posting the first link I came to.

White muscle disease is a muscle degeneration in lambs due to a deficiency in Vitamin E and selenium. How interesting that both supplements are highly recommended for MD patients to take.

Selenium is easily supplied by eating brazil nuts. Vitamin E is easy enough to get, also. We are suppoed to take d-alpha tocopherols. The LEF site I posted said it's also a good idea to take gamma tocopherols to balance out the alphas. I'd have to study that a little more in depth to understand why.

I never thought to explore the vetenary world for answers. The Lord is good and directs our paths.

Blessings,
