Amber, I have to agree. Please see my
longer post. Large concentrated boluses of e-lytes are NOT a normal thing
for the GI tract to handle, and repeated doses to an increasingly-compromised
gut will, in my opinion and experience, make things worse instead of
better. If the horse NEEDS the e-lytes that drastically, then he needs to
stop long enough to consume them in food, or needs to stop altogether
and have IV intervention.
