Why horses lose electrolytes - causes clarified

Electrolyte losses in horses can be caused by various factors.

Here are theMain causes, which leads to aElectrolyte imbalancecan lead to:

Sweat:The main way horses get rid of excess body heat is through sweating. Especially after intense exercise or in high temperatures, sweat loss can be significant. Through sweating, horses also lose important electrolytes, which are essential for the body.
Diseases:Diarrhea and colic are health problems that can lead to significant fluid and electrolyte loss. In such situations, it is especially important to ensure adequate electrolyte intake to prevent deficiencies.
Stress:Stressful situations, whether caused by environmental changes, transport, or competitions, can affect a horse's electrolyte balance. During stressful periods, the horse's electrolyte requirements may increase, which may necessitate additional supplementation.
Unbalanced diet:An unbalanced diet can lead to electrolyte imbalances. It's important that the feed contains all the necessary minerals and trace elements to meet the horse's needs and prevent deficiencies.

These signs indicate electrolyte deficiency in horses

An electrolyte deficiency in horses can manifest itself in various symptoms. These includeFatigue, which are located inlack of motivation and energyexpresses.Muscle tension or crampscan occur, especially after training, and asignificant drop in performancecan be observed even if the horse was previously in good shape.

Some horses also refuse water, instinctively feeling that drinking it could further disrupt their electrolyte balance. This can lead to dehydration, which in turn increases the risk of cardiovascular problems. In addition, signs such asdry mouth, sunken eyesor adull furindicate an electrolyte deficiency.

Electrolytes should alwaysaccording to the manufacturer's or a veterinarian's recommendationIt is important to adjust the dosage to your horse's individual needs.

When feeding electrolytes, care should always be taken to ensure that the horsesufficient water availableas the intake of electrolytes can increase water requirements. For picky horses, it may be helpful toIncrease electrolytes graduallyto allow for habituation.

Can an overdose occur?

As with everything in life, the dose makes the poison. While electrolytes are essential for your horse's health, an overdose can have negative effects.

Dosage recommendation:
• Small horse/pony (up to 600 kg): 1 measuring spoon once daily
• Large horse (from 600 kg): 1 x daily 2 measuring spoons

Electrolytes in horses: Why are they especially important in summer?

Summer, sun, sweat. When temperatures climb, your horse feels the heat just as much as you do.

Increased sunlight and rising humidity cause your horse to sweat more. But with every drop of sweat, not only fluid but also valuable electrolytes are lost. Imagine your horse losing its inner drive.

This is exactly what can happen when electrolyte balance is imbalanced. Therefore, be especially vigilant in the summer and ensure your horse gets all the electrolytes it needs.

How does sweating in horses affect electrolyte requirements?

Sweating is a natural way for horses to release excess body heat. However, with sweat, they lose not only water but also electrolytes such as sodium, potassium, and chloride. These electrolytes are essential for numerous bodily functions, from muscle contraction to nerve function.

Increased sweat loss, especially during intense physical activity or high temperatures, can significantly increase the horse's electrolyte requirements.It is therefore important to compensate for this loss through appropriate feeding or supplementation.

Sweat loss in horses: These amounts are typical

While we humans sweat during exertion and heat, horses' sweat loss is on a completely different level. Their sweat volume far exceeds ours and has a direct impact on their electrolyte balance.

➽ Light sweating: During light physical activity or moderate temperatures, a horse canbetween 5 to 10 liters of sweat per hourThis loss can usually be compensated for through normal drinking and feeding.

➽ Moderate sweating:During more intensive training or higher temperatures, sweat loss canbetween 10 to 15 liters per hourAt this point, attention should be paid to additional electrolyte intake.

➽ Heavy sweating:In extreme conditions, whether due to very intensive training or extreme heat, a horse canup to 20 liters or moresweat per hour. In such cases, targeted electrolyte supplementation is essential to avoid problems caused by electrolyte deficiency.

It's important to note that these amounts can vary depending on the horse's size, weight, and activity level. If unsure, always consult a veterinarian or nutritionist.
