Burwood Electrolytes 1.5kg

Burwood Electrolytes is a scientifically formulated electrolyte supplement for horses, designed to replenish the key salts and minerals lost through sweating during exercise, competition or hot weather. Horses can lose significant quantities of sodium, potassium, chloride and magnesium through sweat, and failure to replace these can lead to dehydration, reduced performance and muscle fatigue.

FAQ

When should I feed electrolytes?

Electrolytes are most beneficial after exercise, during hot weather, or any time your horse is sweating heavily. They can also be used during travel or competition to support hydration and recovery.

How much should I feed?

Follow the feeding guide on the tub. Dosage typically depends on the level of work and sweat loss. Always ensure your horse has access to fresh water when feeding electrolytes.

Can I add them to water?

Yes — Burwood Electrolytes can be dissolved in water or added to feed. If adding to water, always provide a second bucket of plain water alongside so your horse can choose.

Are electrolytes suitable for horses in light work?

Electrolytes are most important for horses in moderate to hard work or during hot weather. Horses in light work with access to a salt lick may not require daily supplementation, but they can still benefit after any sweating episode.

Is it safe for competition horses?

Yes — electrolyte supplementation is widely used in competition horses and is generally permitted under competition rules. Always check with your governing body if in doubt.
