[RC] Vet Question-Biotin recommendation - Sunnyland

 In an article by Oscar Swanstrom, DVM, MS (2005 Int'l Equine Vet. Hall of Fame and Int'l Horseshoeing Hall of Fame) in Thoroughbred Times, Mar 25, 2006 he said horses need 100mg of biotin per day plus a couple of grams of L-methionine.   It seems I remember research discussed on ridecamp (a couple of years back) indicating that15mg per day does the job.   Maybe the 100mg recommendation is based on newer research.  Anyone know?   Kathleen
