A very palatable, butterscotch flavored electrolyte formula that provides the nutrients needed to restore electrolyte balance during times of physical exertion. Electrolytes, or body salts, are becoming more widely recognized as important additives to the diet of equine athletes. This is reasonable considering an average horse can lose one gallon of body fluids after ten minutes of exercising at a canter or gallop. Recent studies have linked the loss and deficiency of electrolytes with poor performance in working and racing horses. Because working horses lose large amounts of fluid, an imbalance of electrolytes contained in the blood stream can bring on symptoms of dehydration and fatigue. Calcium, Potassium, Sodium and Magnesium play important roles in muscle function, metabolism and fluid balance. Concentrated diets containing grains are low in electrolyte content, so supplementation is required to overcome these deficiencies.
