I was going to pass some comments along on the *Home* made electroytes..BE
CAREFULL MANY HORSES (mine too) have been hurt from using these UNBALANCED
formulas.. Read a paper presented by DR LYNN CRESPO..its GREAT and VERY
TECHIE...
DO NOT FEED your horse ROCKS durning a race.. DOLIMITE or Calciun CARBONATE
or MAG OXIDE /...is ROCKS. They MUST have WATER soluable IONS..and
CHEALTED.. CALCIUM ASCETATE (sp) or any of the *TATE* s is correct..
Per a paper and lecture by DR JEannie WALDRON ...*READ THE LABEL**

Products that are correct
ENDURALYTES
ABC RIDE RITE
LYTE NOW
PERF and WIn ...new BY DR GAYLE EACKER (SP) from a study @ ROC
I am using all the above.. Have used and sold ENDURLYTES for 3
years..
USED ABC RIDE-RITE @ OD50

The Performa and Win by BUCKEYE FEED is VERY NEW ...AND my mare EATS it in
her grain.. a full dose it tastes great. Val K has been using it for the past
few races..
(This stuff MAY help solve the NATRC restrictive electroylte rules.. if the
horse will take it in the feed and water..))
I DO NOT care where you get the electrolytes..JUST INSURE it is CORRECT for
use with the horse DURING HIGH output work...
The other stuff is CHEAP and for use with DAILY FEED NOT for when the horse
loose water and electrolytes druing a race/ride etc..

I do not have time to go into this more..I am sure a LOAD of riders and vets
will jump on this one...
Use the WRONG mix and you WILL hurt your horse... BE CAREFULL
