Rug Fill / Weight Guide

The thermoneutral zone is the temperature range where the body can maintain its core temperature with little to no extra energy expenditure. For humans, this range is quite narrow at 21–28 °C, but for horses it’s much broader at 5–25 °C.

This difference means we should avoid rugging horses based on how cold we feel. Over-rugging can lead to serious health issues, including metabolic problems and thermoregulatory dysfunction.

Tips for Choosing a Winter Rug Weight

  • Clipped horses may need a heavier gram fill to stay comfortable.

  • Remember: horses warm themselves more easily than they cool down under a rug. If unsure, choose a lighter rug.

  • Check your horse regularly to make sure they are neither too hot nor too cold.

  • Consider your horse’s age and natural ability to stay warm.

  • As a general guide, rugging is usually appropriate when temperatures drop below 5–10 °C, but always adjust for your horse’s individual needs.

  • Always ensure rugs are waterproof. A wet rug is worse than no rug at all.

This is an indicative guide only. Always take into account factors such as wind chill, your horse’s age, weight, and condition.

ENERGETIC ISOTONIC provides balanced electrolytes, highly bioavailable energy supplements and antioxidants to assist with recovery after hard racing, strenuous exertion or long transport. 

Energetic is formulated to provide the essential balanced electrolytes to maintain optimum body fluid composition and prevent dehydration. It also provides the readily available energy sources glucose & medium chain triglycerides; the biological antioxidants Vitamins C and beta carotene; and to replace essential branch chain amino acids which are depleted from muscles during severe exertion. These nutrients assist with energy availability during a race, and aid in the recovery process after hard racing and training. Medium Chain Triglycerides supply fats as an alternative energy source to glycogen & glucose. Glucose and Maltodextrin are highly bioavailable carbohydrates of value during the stages of racing requiring maximum exertion, where energy availability is critical. The balanced electrolytes maintain normal body function within optimum range.

Dosage & Administration:

One 250 g sachet of ENERGETIC can ideally be mixed in 2.5 litres water that the horse is able to drink whenever required. ENERGETIC is safely mixed as a powder in food, as long as horses drink shortly after eating. Mix one sachet in food 24 hours before travel or hard work. Endurance and other hard working horses may be supple

Ingredients:

Sodium, Chloride, Potassium, Magnesium, Sucrose, Calcium, Phosphourus, Maltodextrin, Triglycerides, Branch Chain Amino Acids, Antioxidants (Betacarotene, Vitamin E, Vitamin C), B Vitamins
