Which Electrolytes Supplement?

[ShowJumperL95]

As per the title. With so many out there which is the best one and is there a real difference between them or is there a different supplement you guys would use to help replenish/pick me up after your horses have done hard work?

Any suggestions welcome

You do really have to watch the amount of potassium in lo so - unless you are also feeding dry bran in which case you need the potassium for balance. Salt alone is just fine - but personally I offer that as free choice rather than forcing the issue by putting it in food. Mostly we offer a minerlaised salt lick. But Mid CIC / ODE when you have to hydrate - we offer NAF electrolytes, a plain water option and a water apple juice mix alongside. No particular reason to choose NAF over anything else but it is easy quick and available. At that point - and in this heat - the object is to offer fluid in any way the horse will take it. They choose what they want.

Why on earth would you need Potassium when feeding bran ???
