DON’T SWEAT THE SMALL STUFF!
Sweating is a major route to dissipate heat during heavy exercise or high ambient temperature. Did you know that horses can lose up to 10% of their body weight through intensive sweating?

Sweat contains many important electrolytes such as sodium, chloride and potassium. In performance horses, zinc can be lost in significant amounts in sweat as well. All of these minerals have to be replenished, as their deficits can lead to disturbance in skeletal muscle ion content causing muscular dysfunction. Always provide electrolytes and water at the same time. Replacing electrolytes without rehydrating the horse can lead to severe complications such as sodium toxicity.
