TopSpec Electrolytes 3kg

TopSpec Electrolytes Supplement for Horses 3kg

TopSpec Electrolytes is a supplement formulated to replace the body salts a horse loses in sweat. Horses sweat a great deal more, and lose considerably more electrolyte in doing so, than most people allow for. Salts lost through sweating are not replaced by drinking water alone, and a horse that is short of them will often seem flat, slow to recover and reluctant to drink properly, which compounds the problem.

Feeding electrolytes is most relevant around hard work, competition, travelling and hot weather, and in horses that sweat heavily whatever the conditions. This supplement is designed to be fed alongside the normal ration, with water freely available so the horse can rehydrate properly. TopSpec are British equine nutrition specialists and back their products with a nutrition advice line.
