Equistro Elytaan
Product Description
Equistro Elytaan – Optimal Hydration and Fast Recovery
Equistro Elytaan is a ready-to-use liquid electrolyte
supplement that supports the horse 's fluid balance and performance .
It is specifically designed to replace electrolytes, minerals
and vitamins lost through sweating and to increase
the horse's drinking.
A horse's thermoregulatory system is highly dependent on sweating,
especially during intense physical exercise, transport or temperature fluctuations.
Excessive sweating quickly leads to the loss of vital salts
(such as sodium chloride) and fluid, which can reduce
performance and slow recovery.
Why Choose
Encourages drinking: The formulation is optimized to increase horse's drinking, which is critical for successful hydration.
Replaces salt losses: Contains plenty of sodium (NaCl), magnesium and potassium in the right proportion.
Supports energy metabolism: Contains niacin, pantothenic acid and amino acids that help the horse perform better.
Prevents fatigue: Helps ensure sufficient electrolyte reserves during endurance-demanding performance and prevents premature exhaustion.
Fast absorption: The liquid form ensures that the nutrients are immediately available to the body.
Clean Sport:The product is doping-free and safe to use during competitions.
Applications
Equistro Elytaan is an essential addition to horse feeding in a variety of situations:
1. Before and after the performance: Ensures adequate electrolytes and speeds up recovery.
2. During transportation: Helps the horse stay hydrated during stressful journeys.
3. For broodmares: Supports the mare's recovery after foaling.
4. During recovery: Promotes overall well-being and nutrient intake after illness or injury.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can Elytaan be given to a horse that drinks poorly during competitions? Yes! This is one of the main benefits of the product. Its formula is specifically designed to stimulate the horse's thirst and increase drinking, which helps prevent dehydration in unfamiliar environments.
How is Elytaan different from regular sea salt?While common salt (NaCl) is important, horses also lose magnesium, potassium, calcium and trace elements through sweat. Elytaan provides all of these in optimal proportions, supplemented with vitamins and amino acids, which supports overall recovery better than salt alone.
When should electrolytes be given? The optimal time to start dosing should begin before intense exercise or transportation (for example the evening before) and continue after the performance until the horse has returned to normal.
