Electrolyte Supplement of Concentrated Physiological Salts for Horses in New Zealand

Many owners do not realise that horses require higher levels of salt, especially when moderately sweating during daily work. Adding an electrolyte mix to the ration will encourage your horse to drink as well as replace the important minerals lost through sweat.

Cell-Salts provides essential physiological salts and other electrolytes which help correct a low or inadequate natural content in common equine diets. 

Cell-Salts is a concentrated all-in-one formulation which provides all the salts your horse needs. Highly palatable and easy to mix into feeds, Cell-Salts is a concentrated salt mix suited to horses in New Zealand

Cell-Salts helps to replenish shortfalls of dietary salts in all resting, working and travelling horses under normal conditions or moderate weather.  Cell-Salts is designed with a flexible supplementation rate relative to specific daily requirements, including feed supplied, water intake and sweat loss. 

• Cell-Salts contains essential salts, including sodium, potassium, magnesium and chloride, as a concentrated, feed-based electrolyte supplement.

• Cell-Salts contains glucose to assist sweat replenishment in normal or variable weather conditions.

• Cell-Salts is specially coated to ensure optimum palatability and reduced salt reactivity, preserving fragile vitamins in the feed and eliminating the risk of digestive upset commonly caused by paste or liquid salt solutions

• Cell-Salts is vanilla flavoured and a heavy, low dust powder for optimum palatability and reduced wastage.

Each level scoopful provides 25 g of Cell-Salts. Mix the measured amount into the daily feed.  It is recommended to provide Cell-Salts after extended exercise to encourage rehydration.  Always ensure that adequate clean & fresh drinking water is available at all times.
