Apple-Flavored Electrolytes
- Helps replace electrolytes lost by dehydration during exercise, training and competition
- Supports normal mineral balance
- Helps replace fluid lost through sweat
Electrolyte supplementation is often thought of as only needed by performance horses; however, any horse that sweats for a prolonged period of time, regardless of reason, will benefit from electrolyte supplementation. Apple Elite Electrolytes provides a complete electrolyte formula to replace vital minerals and encourage water consumption year-round.

In addition to humans, horses are one of the few animal species that use sweating as the primary means for dissipating heat. Sweating is an example of evaporative cooling and accounts for over 50% of heat loss in the horse. Sweat not only contains water, it also contains electrolytes, certain minerals and a protein called latherin. Latherin imparts the “foam” in heavily sweating horses and contributes to the evaporative efficiency. Wiping sweat or lather off the horse is counterproductive, as it will decrease the evaporative cooling effect.
