When to use Restore?

Feeding recommendations
For racehorses and other horses working at moderate to heavy intensity, Restore can be fed daily.
For competition horses, feed the night prior to competition, then following competition and for the first three days of the recovery period.
Restore Powder:
Feed 30, *60 or 90g (½, 1 or 1½ scoops) daily to horses, depending on sweat loss, ambient temperature and humidity.
These recommendations are for horses with a mature body weight of 500kg. Please adjust according to the weight of your horse.
Mix Restore well with feed and split larger serves between feeds.
Restore can also be used in a saline drench by dissolving 60g in 5L of water for an isotonic saline drench.
Always allow free choice access to fresh, clean water following supplementation with electrolytes. A veterinarian should be consulted before feeding electrolytes to a horse that is not willing to drink water.
Note: Consult your local rules of racing regarding race day use.
Why use electrolytes?
Electrolytes are mineral salts that play an important role in maintaining osmotic pressure, fluid balance and nerve and muscle activity. Loss of electrolytes causes fatigue, muscle weakness and decreases the thirst response. Whenever exercising and sweating, electrolytes should be incorporated into the horse’s diet. Equine athletes produce copious quantities of sweat during exercise, especially in hot and humid environments. Working horses can easily excrete 15 litres of sweat during a competition, making electrolyte supplementation and adequate water intake essential.
