Electrolytes for Horses

Electrolytes are vital minerals that help maintain fluid balance, muscle function, and overall health in horses. During exercise and hot weather, horses lose electrolytes through sweat, which can lead to dehydration, reduced performance, and health issues if not properly replenished. Supplementing with electrolytes keeps your horse hydrated, supports recovery, and helps prevent problems like azoturia.

Why Use Electrolyte Supplements for Horses?

Electrolyte supplements help restore the minerals lost during sweating, especially after intense work or competition. They support hydration, muscle function, and waste removal, ensuring your horse stays healthy before, during, and after exercise. Performance horses may also benefit from digestive and general health supplements alongside electrolytes.

How to Feed Electrolytes

Horse electrolyte supplements come in powder, paste, pellet, or liquid form. Powders and pellets can be mixed with feed or water, making them ideal for horses that enjoy the taste. Liquids and pastes offer rapid absorption and are easy to dose, especially for horses that need fast replenishment.
