KER Kentucky Equine Research Race Recovery - 18 kg

Horses with insufficient electrolytes risk loss of stamina and early onset of fatigue. KER Race Recovery™ replaces electrolytes lost by horses on furosemide (Lasix®) to reduce the downtime between fast works and races and replenish minerals lost through increased urination.

KER Race Recovery is a system designed to strategically replenish electrolytes at critical times following exercise.

In a series of studies conducted by Kentucky Equine Research scientists measured the effect of furosemide on urine and fecal excretion of calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, sodium, potassium, and chloride in unexercised and exercised mature Thoroughbred geldings.

Furosemide causes a substantial loss of minerals, including a 40- to 50-fold increase in 4-hour urinary sodium and chloride loss and a sustained calcium loss over several days. With Race Recovery, mineral losses are entirely reversible. Race Recovery stimulates thirst and replaces body weight quickly. Race Recovery Powder is suitable for use as a daily electrolyte supplement.

Feeding recommendations:
Administer one tube (60g) of Race Recovery Paste one to two hours after racing, or as soon as the horse returns to its stall, and a second tube later that night or the morning following the race. Beginning the day after the race, feed one scoop (60g) of Race Recovery Powder twice a day mixed thoroughly in feed as the horse’s daily electrolyte supplement.

For example:
Post-race return to stable: Give 1 Race Recovery Paste

Late night/early next morning: Give 1 Race Recovery Paste
Next 5 days: Give 60g Race Recovery powder twice a day top-dressed on feed
