Aqua Aide

Description

ProElite Aqua Aide is an equine electrolyte supplement designed to help replenish electrolyte losses associated with exercise and sweating. It provides key electrolytes and nutrients to support hydration, water intake, and recovery in performance horses.

Horses lose water and important electrolytes through sweat during exercise, training, competition, transportation, and hot weather. Aqua Aide provides sodium, chloride, potassium, magnesium, and calcium along with dextrose to help replace nutrients lost through sweating.

The powder offers flexible administration and can be mixed directly into water or top-dressed onto the horse's feed. ProElite recommends providing free access to clean, fresh water at all times while using Aqua Aide.

Uses & Benefits

• Helps replenish electrolyte losses in performance horses
• Quickly replaces nutrients lost through sweat

How It Works

During exercise and sweating, horses lose both water and electrolytes. Maintaining appropriate fluid and electrolyte balance is important for normal hydration, muscle function, and recovery.

Aqua Aide provides electrolyte sources including sodium chloride, potassium chloride, magnesium sulfate, calcium citrate, and potassium citrate. The formula also contains dextrose, which provides a readily available carbohydrate source.

By supplying electrolytes and nutrients lost during sweating, Aqua Aide helps support electrolyte balance, water intake, and post-exercise recovery.

Indications

For use in horses, particularly performance and working horses requiring additional electrolyte supplementation.

• Exercise / Training / Competition / Increased sweating / Hot weather / Transportation / Electrolyte replacement / Hydration support / Recovery support / Performance horses

Aqua Aide may be administered according to the duration and intensity of the horse's exercise.

Possible Side Effects

No specific adverse effects are identified in the current ProElite Aqua Aide product information when fed according to directions.

Individual horses may respond differently to electrolyte supplementation. Excessive electrolyte intake without adequate water consumption may contribute to fluid or electrolyte imbalance.

Discontinue use and consult a veterinarian if an unexpected or concerning reaction develops.

• Follow feeding recommendations based on exercise duration and intensity
• Introduce electrolyte-supplemented water carefully if the horse is unfamiliar with it
• Ensure adequate water intake when administering electrolytes
• Monitor hydration during periods of intense exercise, transportation, or hot weather
• Consult a veterinarian before use in sick horses or horses with medical conditions affecting fluid or electrolyte balance
• Tell your veterinarian about other supplements and medications the horse receives
