HHC Quick Tips - Before you give your horse electrolytes, you should know this
Summer is here and is here to stay!
To avoid overheating, we all have to be very careful working our horse in the hot weather and some of us might have elected to feed our horse more "summer food" such as lower protein diet and feed our horses electrolytes. However, please take note that it is best to avoid excessive use of salty foods, including electrolytes, for horses that are overweight, lethargic, or have damp conditions such as stocking up. If necessary, these horses should be fed salty seaweeds, such as kelp, because the iodine and trace mineral content support the metabolism.
Everything should be in moderation.
