Humidimix Electrolyte Replacer for Horses

HUMIDIMIX will replace salts lost due to heavy sweating and will aid in the treatment of alkalosis and hypochloraemia in horses. It may also be used as supportive therapy in the treatment of dehydration if given with water.

WHAT IS HUMIDIMIX®?

HUMIDIMIX is a specially formulated supplement that contains high levels of potassium, chloride and magnesium to encourage drinking and help with:

• Replacing essential electrolytes
• Horses recovering from sweat loss due to heat, humidity and intense or prolonged exercise.

The powdered supplement can be added to feed or given in water.

RECOMMENDED FOR

• High performance horses doing moderate speed work over extended periods (e.g. harness, racing, endurance, eventing, dressage, stock work)
• Heavy sweaters
• Horses working in hot and humid conditions
• Horse prone to ‘tying up’ or ‘anhidrosis’ (dry coat or non-sweating disease)

WHY CHOOSE HUMIDIMIX?

• Higher levels of potassium – To avoid decreases in muscle strength and tone.
• Higher levels of chloride – To help avoid blood alkalosis (hypochloraemic alkalosis), which causes issues such as loss in racing performance, uncharacteristic nervy behaviour and increased risk of tying up.
• Higher levels of magnesium – To maintain metabolism and musculoskeletal soundness.
• Ideal balance of electrolytes - HUMIDIMIX replaces electrolytes in proportion to those lost in heavy sweating for immediate correction and performance.
• Encourages drinking through versatile dosing without the fillers (e.g. sugar, lactose or table salt).
