Key Features:
1. Top Three Limiting Amino Acids:
Re-Fuel is formulated with the three top limiting amino acids crucial for optimal recovery. Limiting amino acids, essential for protein synthesis, can often be in short supply relative to the body’s requirements, slowing the repair and rebuilding of muscle tissue vital for post-exercise recovery.
Lysine, threonine and methionine are recognised as the primary, secondary and tertiary limiting amino acids in horse’s diets. These amino acids are indispensable for muscle repair and growth, and pivotal for swift post-exercise recuperation in horses. By incorporating all three limiting amino acids, Re-Fuel ensures comprehensive support for muscle recovery, facilitating quicker bounce-back and peak performance.
2. Antioxidant Powerhouse:
Re-Fuel is enriched with high levels of vitamin C, vitamin E, and selenium. These essential nutrients work in harmony to effectively neutralise harmful free radicals that accumulate during strenuous exercise, supporting the body’s natural recovery processes. By combatting oxidative stress, Re-Fuel helps to promote overall well-being and enhance post-workout recuperation.
3. Electrolyte Balance:
Electrolytes like sodium, potassium, chloride and magnesium are vital for keeping horses properly hydrated. During intense exercise or hot weather, horses lose electrolytes through sweat. Replenishing these electrolytes is crucial to restore balance and prevent dehydration, which can hinder performance and recovery.
These minerals are essential for muscle function, particularly sodium and potassium, which play key roles in nerve transmission and muscle activity. Supplementing horses with electrolytes post-exercise supports muscle recovery and reduces the risk of cramps or stiffness.
Electrolytes also aid in fluid absorption in the gut, helping horses rehydrate effectively after activity. This is especially beneficial for horses reluctant to drink immediately after exertion.
4. Low Sugar and Starch Content:
Re-Fuel provides essential electrolytes without compromising horse health, minimising the risk of digestive upset, insulin resistance and metabolic disorders. The formulation ensures stable energy levels, promoting better performance and recovery without the spikes and crashes associated with high-sugar options. Suitable for a wide range of horses, Re-Fuel’s low sugar and starch content makes it a versatile choice that prioritises health and effectiveness without sacrificing taste or performance.
5. Gut Health:
Featuring prebiotics and probiotics, Re-Fuel supports a normal gut environment. Stressors like travel or competition can disrupt the delicate balance of gut bacteria, leading to digestive issues such as colic or loose stools. By stabilising the gut microbiome, prebiotics and probiotics mitigate the risk of digestive disturbances, supporting overall digestive health and well-being.
6. Enhanced Hydration:
Re-Fuel’s is soaked to form a tasty mash encouraging increased fluid intake alongside essential nutrients, promoting hydration and facilitating rapid recovery.
7. Irresistible Flavor:
Re-Fuel uses a tasty cherry flavour to entice fussy horses to eat! Studies show that horses are more likely to consume feeds or supplements with cherry flavour compared to other options such as carrot, apple, mint, banana and oats.
Feeding Rate:
Re-Fuel is fed in 500g servings and is soaked 1 part feed 2 parts water.
