Balanced electrolytes for your horse

Balanced electrolytes for your horse

Kauffman's HydroMax contains proven rehydration ingredients (salt and potassium chloride) formulated to provide the proper amounts and ratios of sodium, potassium and chloride.

Convenient, flexible dosing allows you to specifically tailor use of HydroMax and HydroMax paste to the exertion level, environmental temperature and rehydration status of your horse! Available in a water-soluble powder or a convenient dial-a-dose oral syringe.

Kauffman’s HydroMax contains proven rehydration ingredients (salt and potassium chloride) formulated to provide the proper amounts and ratios of sodium (Na), potassium (K) and chloride (Cl). This foundation for traditional electrolyte formulations has been uniquely supplemented with calcium acetate, lactose, fenugreek, magnesium oxide, and glycine to significantly enhance pre- and post-exertion recovery and rehydration.<

Salt (NaCl) and potassium chloride (KCl) are the foundation ingredients necessary for homeostasis of bodily fluids and water balance. Furthermore, calcium acetate and magnesium oxide provide calcium (Ca) and magnesium (Mg) required for proper maintenance of a variety of equine tissues and functions.

Lactose and whey protein concentrate derived from milk are sources of energy, protein and amino acids that facilitate electrolyte absorption and sodium utilization. This unique combination more ideally mimics the key components of skim milk that has been shown to have significant beneficial properties for recovery and rehydration in human athletes following intense workouts.

Fenugreek is a rich source of galactomannan and mucilage, and when coupled with glycine provide some level of protection to and enhance the functional integrity of the intestinal mucosa.
