Apple Lytes Paste 30ml

An increase in body temperature, whether due to exercise, travel, or high ambient temperatures, will cause the horse to sweat. The evaporation of this sweat helps the horse cool down and regulate its body temperature.

Sweating causes fluid loss, along with the loss of body salts or electrolytes, which are contained in sweat.

Therefore, maintaining hydration and replacing lost electrolytes is important not only for elite competition horses, but also for all horses and ponies that sweat after work, from Pony Club rallies or long hacks in the summer, to international eventers, show jumpers, and dressage horses!

Important electrolytes are sodium and chloride, potassium, calcium, and magnesium, and they play many key roles in the body, but especially in muscle contraction, the nervous system, and maintaining fluid balance around cells.

Because a horse's sweat contains a higher concentration of sodium and chloride than its other body fluids, it is important that supplemental electrolytes are provided in the correct concentrations to ensure the desire to drink is maintained, so that fluid balance and electrolyte losses can be restored, to promote rehydration and recovery, and to ensure continued optimal performance.

This is especially important during long-distance rides, or longer shows and events, when fatigue will increase and performance will decrease if electrolyte and fluid balance is not restored (rehydration).

Research has shown that just 1% dehydration can negatively affect performance.

Apple Lytes Pasta has been carefully formulated to begin replacing key electrolytes and encourage drinking to help support rehydration and maintain peak performance.

Apple Lytes should not be given on an empty stomach, but at appropriate intervals during long-distance rides. After exertion, once cooled and calm, the horse should be offered a small amount of roughage or access to forage before administering Apple Lytes Paste.
