TopSpec Electrolytes 1.5 Kg

TopSpec Electrolytes are designed to help compensate for electrolyte loss after heavy sweating. This high salt formula is fabulously flavoured with wildberry, significantly increasing palatability. 

Some minerals are also called electrolytes. This is because, when dissolved in body fluids, they carry spare ions which give them an electrical charge. Electrolytes use this charge to help control the water balance in a horse, trying to maintain a sufficiently hydrated status at all times. Electrolytes also play an important role in muscle function and, through their role in hydration, both temperature regulation and the transport of nutrients and waste products throughout the horse’s body.

If electrolytes are not added to a horse’s diet when required, many problems may occur including dehydration. Dehydration can be life-threatening and is frequently performance-limiting. A horse has only to become mildly dehydrated to lose performance, sometimes reported as a lack of stamina and slow recovery rates. 

Electrolytes should always be added in addition to any salt already in the diet and not instead of that salt. The addition of salt to the diet should be sufficient for horses only sweating lightly. Salt licks should always be available 24/7.

Divide the daily amount equally amongst meals and mix well. It is recommended that this electrolyte preparation is used for at least 2 days after sweating.
