Clean fresh water should always be available.\u003cbr\u003eAn increase in body temperature, whether due to exercise, travel, or environmental heat, will cause horses to sweat. This sweating process helps the horse cool its body and regulate its temperature.\u003c\/p\u003e  \n\u003cp\u003eSweating causes fluid loss, along with loss of body salts or electrolytes, which are found in sweat.\u003cbr\u003eThe important electrolytes are \u003cstrong\u003esodium, chloride, potassium, calcium, and magnesium\u003c\/strong\u003e, and they play a key role in the body, especially in muscle contraction, the nervous system, and maintaining fluid balance around cells.\u003c\/p\u003e  \n\u003cp\u003ePotassium is usually abundant in the horse's diet, as most feeds such as pastures, hay, and silage are rich in potassium.\u003cbr\u003eSodium and chloride, however, are found at much lower levels in feeds, and even for lightly working horses, sodium and chloride must be provided daily.\u003cbr\u003eMost compound feeds such as cubes and mixes provide some sodium and chloride in the form of salt, but if inputs are low, this may not be sufficient, and additional electrolytes will be needed. Similarly, hard-working horses, especially in hot or humid conditions, will lose larger amounts of electrolytes and water in sweat. There is often not enough in the normal daily feed to compensate for these losses, and additional electrolytes will be needed to replace these losses, encouraging the horse to drink and promoting rehydration, to maintain Health and performance.\u003cbr\u003eModerately working horses, such as those trotting and cantering, can lose up to 5-7 liters of fluid and 50-70 grams of electrolytes per hour, and this amount will increase with increased work intensity or duration, and even more if the weather is hot and humid!\u003c\/p\u003e  \n\u003cp\u003eTherefore, maintaining hydration and restoring lost electrolytes is important not only for elite competition horses but for all horses and foals that sweat after work – from pony club gatherings or long summer rides, to international racers, show jumpers, and dressage horses!\u003cbr\u003eBecause horse sweat contains a higher concentration of sodium and chloride compared to other body fluids, it is important to provide additional electrolytes at the correct concentrations to ensure the desire to drink is maintained, so that \u003cstrong\u003efluid balance and electrolyte losses can be restored, promoting recovery, and ensuring continued optimal performance.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThis is especially important during long-distance travel, or long shows and events, when fatigue will increase, and performance will decline if electrolyte and fluid balance is not restored.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 12pt;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat are the benefits of Apple Lytes?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \n\u003cul\u003e  \n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSodium, potassium, and chloride levels\u003c\/strong\u003e are carefully balanced to provide optimal levels to promote drinking and restore electrolyte losses to maintain performance.\u003c\/li\u003e  \n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCalcium and magnesium\u003c\/strong\u003e are also available from bioavailable sources.\u003c\/li\u003e  \n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLow sugar\u003c\/strong\u003e and suitable for all horses and foals.\u003c\/li\u003e  \n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVery tasty,\u003c\/strong\u003e with an appealing apple\/cherry flavor, and is easily accepted even by horses that are picky about Food.\u003c\/li\u003e  \n\u003c\/ul\u003e  \n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIngredients per 30 gram serving:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \n\u003cdiv class=\"table-wrapper\"\u003e  \n\u003ctable class=\"ingredientTable\" style=\"border-collapse: collapse; margin-left: 0px; border-width: 1px; height: 52.8px; margin-right: auto;\" border=\"1\"\u003e  \n\u003ctbody\u003e  \n\u003ctr style=\"height: 17.6px;\"\u003e  \n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left; width: 50.3226%; padding: 5px; border-width: 1px; height: 17.6px;\"\u003eSodium 6800 mg\u003c\/th\u003e  \n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left; width: 49.6774%; padding: 5px; border-width: 1px; height: 17.6px;\"\u003ePotassium 2000 mg\u003c\/th\u003e  \n\u003c\/tr\u003e  \n\u003ctr style=\"height: 17.6px;\"\u003e  \n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left; width: 50.3226%; padding: 5px; border-width: 1px; height: 17.6px;\"\u003eChloride 12200 mg\u003c\/th\u003e  \n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left; width: 49.6774%; padding: 5px; border-width: 1px; height: 17.6px;\"\u003eCalcium 150 mg\u003c\/th\u003e  \n\u003c\/tr\u003e  \n\u003ctr style=\"height: 17.6px;\"\u003e  \n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left; width: 50.3226%; padding: 5px; border-width: 1px; height: 17.6px;\"\u003eMagnesium 500 mg\u003c\/th\u003e  \n\u003cth style=\"text-align: left; width: 49.6774%; padding: 5px; border-width: 1px; height: 17.6px;\"\u003eDextrose 2200 mg\u003c\/th\u003e  \n\u003c\/tr\u003e  \n\u003c\/tbody\u003e  \n\u003c\/table\u003e  \n\u003c\/div\u003e  \n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePackage size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2.5 kg (80-day supply), also available in 10 kg (330 servings).\u003c\/p\u003e  \n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUsage instructions:\u003c\/strong\u003e For horses weighing 400-600 kg; light work: 30 grams per day.
