Provides a balanced profile of electrolytes for all mature horses. Electrolytes are electrically charged salts or ‘ions’ such as sodium, chloride, potassium, magnesium and calcium which are dissolved and carried in the blood and cell fluids. As salts dissolve in the blood and tissues of the body, electrolytes assist in preserving the correct balance of fluids both inside and outside the cells. Electrolytes also function in the generation of nerve impulses, contraction and relaxation of muscles, the beating of the heart and processing of wastes. In fact electrolytes are involved in virtually every function of the body. An electrolyte imbalance may cause such complications as dehydration, muscle fatigue, reduced stamina, overheating, and tying-up. It is therefore essential that electrolyte supplementation occurs as part of your daily nutritional management practices
