The winning Edge

Posted in General Posts by Gerald on the April 15th, 2008

  My Kiger Mustang seem to eat anything.  My wife’s pine trees, blackberry bushes. To say the least they are easy keepers. But one thing they do need is water. For equine athletes the winning edge means the right nutrition, and your horses drink enough water, then their bodies can make energy efficiently and fuel top performance. However getting your horse to drink during competition is imperative and more often than not difficult. There are many trick riders and trainers try soaking their hay, feeding soaked beet pulp, but the best approach I’ve found is green grass.Water is the most important factor in sports nutrition. Water makes up approximately 60% of body weight and 70% of green grass.  It is involved in almost every body process. Your body cannot make or store water, so you must replace the water eliminated in urination and sweating.

But water rich in minerals and nutrients, chloraphyl, found in green feed. That’s the key to winning.
