Designed specifically for endurance horses, Endura-Max™ is an electrolyte supplement formulated to restore key electrolytes lost in sweat, including sodium, chloride, and potassium.
Features:
- Concentrated formula designed specifically for endurance horses
- Unlike other electrolytes, it also contains calcium and magnesium – minerals that may also be depleted in high levels in endurance horses
- Contains little sugar – less than 15%
- Easy to give – just mix into daily feed ration
- Helps support normal hydration
- Made in the U.S.A.
Directions for Use:
For immediate oral supplementation, mix Endura-Max in a 60cc dose syringe with water or another carrier (such as applesauce or yogurt)
For preloading prior to a competition, mix Endura-Max with the grain portion of the diet or administer orally. In addition, horses should always have free-choice access to a salt block or loose salt and fresh clean water.
Feeding Directions:
The following are general guidelines. The actual amount of electrolyte supplementation needed will depend on the level of exercise, temperature, and humidity.
During Competition:
Because of the tremendous sweat loss during a race, an endurance horse should receive 2 oz the night before, 2 oz prior to starting, and 2 oz at every vet check.
Daily Supplementation:
Daily Supplementation of electrolytes to an endurance horse is discretionary. A normal maintenance intake for horses at rest in hot environments or those being transported in hot weather is 1 oz per day. Horses at moderate work levels should receive 2-3 ounces per day, and those in heavy training require 3-4 oz in separate feedings.
If a horse is unwilling to drink water, electrolytes should not be given without the supervision of a veterinarian.
Size: 5 lbs (80 oz)
Important Note:
Always provide horses receiving electrolyte supplementation with free-choice, clean water. Lack of adequate water in a diet supplemented with electrolytes may lead to dehydration and other serious metabolic disorders.
