Electrolytes are the blood minerals that make up the pH balance of the blood and the electrical potential of the body. Without electrolytes, the body is like a car without a battery - it just cannot get started. Electrolytes for the most part are NOT stored, apart from salt and calcium, and you don't want to use your stores of bone for blood calcium as that can lead to osteoperosis and kidney stones. So electrolytes MUST come from the diet.

Electrolytes are salts in the body that conduct electricity and are found in the body, fluid, tissue and blood. Examples are calcium, magnesium, sodium and potassium. Sodium is concentrated in the extracellular fluid between tissue cells and potassium is concentrated in the intracellular fluid within the blood vessels. Proper balance is essential for muscle coordination, heart function, fluid absorption and excretion, nerve function and concentration.

Electrolytes give your body the electrical support necessary for your heart, muscles, and nervous system to work properly. Poor diet, climate, illness, stress, medications and other activities all rob your body of these essential electrolytes; sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium, chloride, bicarbonate, phosphorus, and sulfur. Trying to replace electrolytes with sports drinks will generally be unsuccessful as most drinks provide a high concentration of carbohydrates; not electrolytes.

The electrolytes contained in Electrolytes Plus Minerals include sodium, chloride and potassium. When a horse sweats, these three electrolytes are the ones lost at the highest levels.

The electrolytes found in FIJI Water include sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium, chloride, and bicarbonate. These electrolytes are especially important for good health. FIJI Water does not add electrolytes or any other additives to its water.

This depends upon the type of horse you are feeding. Feed adult horses and yearlings 1 scoop at each feeding, for a maximum of 2 scoops per day. Feed weanlings ½ scoop at each feeding for a maximum of 1 scoop per day. For heavily exercised or heavily sweating horses feed 1½ scoops at each of two feedings per day or 1 scoop at each of three feedings for a maximum of 3 scoops per day.

In 1990, a study reported in the Journal of Natural Medicine, entitled ''Effects of Colon Hydrotherapy on Serum Electrolytes'', showed that no patient experienced any clinically significant symptoms or disturbances.

Electrolytes are vital to physiologic function and athletic performance. High or low levels of electrolytes are detrimental to performance and health. The term 'electrolyte' is a medical word for the electrically charged minerals in the body. Electrolytes are vital to health, and act as chemical messengers in the body carrying electrical impulses from the nerves to control all tissue function and movement.

Healthy kidneys keep the body's electrolytes in balance. In chronic renal failure, the poor kidney function causes electrolyte imbalances. This can cause additional health issues. A nine-year-old healthy cat has reached the time when key nutrients are very likely to benefit them most. You simply can not be sure these nutrients are present in the diet of even the best eater of the best food. B-Complex ? refers to a "cocktail" of essential B-Vitamins taken together.

FIJI Water is a natural source of electrolytes, such as potassium, calcium, magnesium, chloride, and bicarbonate, all of which are vital for good health. Meaning, FIJI Water does not add or enhance its water with electrolytes. All of the electrolytes in FIJI Water are naturally occurring, as FIJI Water's mineral composition and taste are the result of its source: an artesian aquifer on the islands of Fiji, where mineral-rich volcanic rock acts as a natural filter for the water.

ECare Nutritionals Electrolytes Plus Minerals provides horse electrolytes for normal body functions and replenishes electrolytes lost during exercise.

Electrolytes are the minerals crucial to proper cell functioning, and are lost when your horse sweats due to exercise or high temperatures. Even moderate activity can cause sweating and loss of electrolytes. By replacing these equine electrolytes, your horse's performance can be maintained.

Zinc, manganese, iron and copper are also included in Electrolytes Plus Minerals. These minerals contribute to overall horse health.

No. The VS2 offers Na+, K+, tCO2, and Cl - on the same unit, same test procedure and same sample. back to top

Electrolyte is sold as a dry powder and is mixed with water. Once mixed it becomes a waste that can not usually be disposed of in the sewer because of the high salt levels. When electrolyte is used for cutting the fluid gets contaminated with grinding sludge (metal particles, abrasives and metal hydroxides). Electrolytes with chelating agents will absorb metal into the solution and will produce less sludge. Eventually the electrolyte becomes saturated and must be changed.

The unique nutrient formulation of Sport Beans jelly beans is based upon established recommendations for carbohydrate and electrolyte replacement from the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM). The ACSM guidelines recommend consuming 30 to 60 grams of carbohydrate per hour during exercise lasting 60 minutes or more. These guidelines also recommend drinking 1/2 to 3/4 cups of water every 15 to 20 minutes and to include the electrolyte sodium.
