Race Recovery
Race Recovery Paste and Powder are innovative electrolyte supplements designed specifically for horses given furosemide. Use of furosemide causes electrolyte loss and imbalance through increased urination. When coupled with the electrolyte losses that occur naturally with sweating, total electrolyte depletion can be significant following intense exercise. Without proper electrolyte replenishment, complete physiological recovery may be delayed, setting the stage for longer intervals between races.
Race Recovery reduces the downtime between bouts of intense exercise by replacing key electrolytes, including calcium and magnesium. Research at Kentucky Equine Research (KER) found that horses given furosemide require additional supplementation following exertion to maintain optimal electrolyte balance.
