Beat the Heat Part 3 – Electrolytes

Electrolytes are one of the most talked-about topics in summer horse care, but do you know what they actually do? In this episode of Horse HealthCast, we break down the role electrolytes play in hydration, recovery, and performance for every horse (not just performance horses). Learn how horses lose electrolytes through sweat, how supplementation differs from providing salt alone, and how to build a smart hydration plan for training, travel, and competition season.
