HORSPORT REHYDRATION & RECOVERY™

FOR MORE SPORT IN YOUR HORSE, ORAL REHYDRATION PUTS BACK WHAT SWEAT TAKES OUT.

During strenuous exercise, horses lose large amounts of electrolytes in sweat. If not replaced quickly, fluid balance may be disrupted, horses can dehydrate and muscle damage is likely.  HORSPORT REHYDRATION & RECOVERY™ rapidly replaces the nutrients needed by exercising horses so they can recover faster, 'back-up' sooner and maintain peak performance for longer.

HORSPORT REHYDRATION & RECOVERY™ contains electrolytes to prevent dehydration and to replace losses in sweat, glucose to replace energy used by cells, and glycine to help these by easily absorbed.

Use during or after heavy sweat loss. Horses involved in events such as racing, showjumping, polo and polocrosse should receive HORSPORT REHYDRATION & RECOVERY™ as soon as possible after competition or intense training sessions.  With endurance riding, 3 day eventing or long distance transportation, HORSPORT REHYDRATION & RECOVERY™ may also be administered along the way to replenish body reserves and prevent dehydration later on.

For best results, use ELECTROMIX ELECTROLYTES & SWEAT™ every day for electrolyte requirements and HORSPORT REHYDRATION & RECOVERY™ whenever heavy sweating occurs, to rapidly replace lost nutrients.

ACTIVE CONSTITUENTS: Each Litre Contains:

PROPERTIES:   HORSPORT REHYDRATION & RECOVERY™ is a combination of Electrolytes, Glycine (an Amino Acid) and Glucose which aid rehydration and helps replace electrolytes lost through sweating during strenuous exercise and transportation.  Rehydration is a very important issue in performance horses as it means faster recovery with less stress.  Faster recovery means that a longer peak performance period can be achieved, and the animal is able to back up faster (e.g. more frequent racing). HORSPORT REHYDRATION & RECOVERY™ is designed to be used both during and after events e.g. endurance, polo and polocrosse.

HORSPORT REHYDRATION & RECOVERY™should always be given with water, and it is this process, osmosis, which forces the water across the gut wall and into the bloodstream to replace those elements originally lost through sweat.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE:
ADEQUATE CLEAN DRINKING WATER SHOULD BE AVAILABLE AT ALL TIMES WHEN USING HORSPORT REHYDRATION & RECOVERY™.
DILUTE HORSPORT REHYDRATION & RECOVERY™ IN CLEAN FRESH WATER BEFORE USE.
Give diluted HORSPORT REHYDRATION & RECOVERY™ after exercise or during work to aid recovery and rehydration.

LIGHT WORK:   Dilute 40 mL HORSPORT REHYDRATION & RECOVERY™ in at least 2 Litres of drinking water.  Horses over 300Kg should be given 4 Litres of diluted solution.  Ponies (under 300 Kg) should be given 2 Litres of diluted solution.

HEAVY WORK:    Dilute 80 mL HORSPORT REHYDRATION & RECOVERY™ in at least 2 Litres of drinking water.  Horses over 300 Kg should be given 8 Litres of diluted solution.   Ponies (under 300 Kg) should be given 4 Litres of diluted solution.

ENDURANCE RIDING:   Dilute HORSPORT REHYDRATION & RECOVERY™ at a rate of 80 mL in 2 Litres of drinking water and give at least 2 Litres of diluted solution as often as possible during the event.

During excessive sweating, dilute HORSPORT REHYDRATION & RECOVERY™ at a rate of 80mL per Litre to aid increased rehydration and electrolyte replacement.  It is recommended that electrolyte replacers such as
ELECTROMIX ELECTROLYTES & SWEAT™ be also used routinely in feed to ensure electrolyte needs are satisfied
HORSPORT REHYDRATION & RECOVERY™ may be further diluted to suit the taste of individual horses.
