About POTASSIUM CHLORIDE - 20 LB
Potassium Chloride is an electrolyte that your horse needs supplemented during heavy training. Electrolytes are minerals that occur in your horse's body in a charged form and are essential to the functioning of many physiological systems. In training and heavy competition it is important to maintain or replenish five particular minerals essential to neuro-muscular function that are lost in sweat: Sodium, Potassium, Chloride, Calcium and Magnesium. Your horse needs around 45g/day of Potassium at rest, this is easily met in a balanced diet with adequate grass and/or hay. However, during competition or heavy training when he does not have time to consume adequate roughage, your horse may experience a Potassium deficit. At these times Potassium is usually delivered in the form of Potassium Chloride. Feed 1/2 ounce daily - A one ounce measure is enclosed. The 20 lb pack will provide up to a 640 day supply for one horse. FOB
