[RC] French and e'lytes - JonniFrom the archives a year ago: http://www.endurance.net/ridecamp/archives/past/05/10/msg00041.html [RC] French team and horse supplements - Ridecamp Guest Please Reply to: Liz Henry liz@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx or ridecamp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ========================================== Hi all, Just had a conversation with the coach/trainer of the French endurance team about horse supplements. He doesn't use ANY! When I pressed him specifically about e'lytes during a ride like at the WEC in Dubai, he said they didn't use any. His philosophy is that if the horse is properly conditioned and has access to the best hay and grain, he needs nothing else. He said that he experimented with supplements and if the temp was 100 with high humidity, then he would probably use e'lytes. If his results for the past several years didn't speak for themselves, I would be tempted to argue, but..... food for thoughts.
