Sweat carries away sodium, chloride and potassium in quantity, and a horse that has lost them will not rehydrate properly on water alone — the thirst response itself depends on the salts being replaced. This supplies them at 16.7% sodium, 30.7% chloride, 5% potassium, 1.7% calcium and 1.7% magnesium.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is fed at 12g per 100kg bodyweight, either stirred into slightly dampened feed or mixed with water at one 50ml scoop per 2.5 litres, which gives an isotonic oral rehydration solution.
