Product Information

Full details

Science Supplements SafeSalt is an ideal solution for horse owners looking to maintain electrolyte balance in horses with sensitive stomachs or picky appetites. By utilizing specialized MicroBead Technology, this supplement delivers essential sodium and chloride directly to the small intestine for gentle absorption, effectively preventing the gastric irritation common with traditional salt products; however, users should note that the oil-coated texture requires proper mixing into feed to ensure complete consumption.

FAQs

How does SafeSalt differ from standard table salt?

Unlike standard salt which dissolves immediately in the stomach and can cause irritation, SafeSalt uses oil-coated MicroBeads to bypass the stomach and release nutrients in the small intestine.

Can I feed this to my horse daily?

Yes, SafeSalt is designed for daily maintenance to replace electrolytes lost through sweat, urine, and feces.

Is it safe for horses with a history of gastric ulcers?

Yes, its primary design goal is to prevent gastric irritation, making it much safer for horses prone to ulcers compared to traditional salt supplements.

Do I need to change my horse's water intake?

You should always ensure constant access to fresh water. Supplementing with electrolytes increases the biological need for water to maintain proper osmotic balance.

Is this product suitable for horses at rest?

Yes, it helps maintain baseline hydration and electrolyte balance for all horses, whether they are in hard training or at rest.

Troubleshooting

Horse refuses to eat feed with SafeSalt

Introduce the supplement starting with a very small amount and gradually increase the dosage over 7-10 days to allow the horse to adjust to the texture.

Supplement is settling at the bottom of the feed bucket

Mix the SafeSalt with damp chaff, beet pulp, or a small amount of oil to help the particles adhere to the feed components.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To integrate SafeSalt into your horse's diet, begin by introducing the supplement gradually into their normal ration. Because of the MicroBead coating, it is best to mix the powder into a dampened feed or wet mash to prevent the beads from settling at the bottom of the bucket or being sifted out by the horse.

Store the 10kg container in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain the integrity of the oil-coated beads. Always ensure your horse has access to fresh, clean water at all times, as electrolyte supplementation works most effectively when the horse is properly hydrated to allow the kidneys to regulate sodium and chloride levels.
