Description

Restores is a scientifically formulated electrolyte supplement designed to match the composition of horse sweat. Restore is designed to replenish
electrolytes in any situation where horses may have sweated, particularly after training, travel, racing, competition or during hot weather.
Restore is sugar–free and does not contain any alkalinising agents.

Why use Restore Electrolytes?

  • Formulated to match the composition of horse sweat to provide balanced electrolyte replacement
  • Assists in stimulation of thirst response and rehydration
  • Some performance horses are prone to gastric ulcers, and electrolytes can aggravate irritated stomach tissue.

When to use Restore:

  • Replenishment of electrolytes lost in sweat
  • Working and performance horses
  • Prior to travel, throughout competition and post event

Why use Electrolytes?
Electrolytes are mineral salts that play an important role in maintaining osmotic pressure, fluid balance, nerve and muscle activity. Loss of electrolytes causes fatigue, muscle weakness, and decreases the thirst response. Whenever exercising and sweating, electrolytes should be incorporated into the horse’s diet.

Equine athletes produce copious quantities of sweat during exercise, especially in hot and humid environments. Working horses can easily excrete 15 litres of sweat during a competition, making electrolyte supplementation and adequate water intake essential.

Feeding Recommendations
For racehorses and other horses working at moderate to heavy intensity, Restore can be  fed daily.

For competition horses, feed the night prior to competition, then following competition and for the first three days of the recovery period.

Feed 30*, 60 or 90g (½, 1 or 1½ scoops) daily to horses, depending on sweat loss, ambient temperature and humidity.

These recommendations are for horses with a mature body weight of 500kg. Please adjust according to the weight of your horse.

Mix Restore well with feed and split larger serves between feeds.

Restore can also be used in a saline drench.
