Product Overview
Replaces Key Minerals Lost In Sweat
Dehydration in horses has serious consequences. In order to keep your horse properly hydrated and performing his best, it is essential to supplement his diet with salt. Neither hay, pasture, nor fortified grain contain enough salt (sodium chloride) to meet your horse’s needs, and not all horses can get their requirements from a salt block alone. Feeding a well-balanced electrolyte supplement like SmartLytes can supply the sodium chloride your horse needs, in addition to the other electrolyte minerals that are lost in sweat - potassium, calcium, and magnesium. Supplying these electrolytes will also encourage your horse to drink more water, rebalancing his fluids and helping to ensure proper digestion of feeds.
SmartLytes was carefully formulated to mimic the mineral losses in equine sweat. This cherry-flavored powder is sugar-free and contains trimethylglycine (the osmolyte betaine), to help cells maintain normal fluid levels. What a smart electrolyte!
ALSO AVAILABLE IN PELLETS!

SmartLytes Powder
Horses actually don't like it. They prefer plain loose salt.

Easy way to 'eloctrolyte' my horses!
Existing in Florida's intense and humid summers are punishing on my equines. This is such an easy mess free way of getting electrolytes into my 3. Initially when I first started putting this in their feed they would leave a bit. I have to really mix it in with their food so they eat it up. My one mare is still picky hence the 4 stars and not 5

Good value
Awhile ago I had ordered this product and it came in pellet form . My recent order came in a powder . I stopped using this as I had a full bucket of Salt lites powder at home . Until that is gone I won’t reorder this particular item .

Great product!
This is a great supplement and smells fantastic but unfortunately my super picky pony wouldn’t eat anything that had this on it. I tried mixing it with applesauce to no avail

So far so good
Switched to the SmartLytes Powder after the pellets arrived inedible. Wanted some electrolytes for my mare and thought the pellets would be gobbled down easier with her grain than powder form. However, after years of all going smoothly, the smart paks arrived with an odd smell (just the electrolytes) and she refused to eat them. So, I switched to the powder. Once in awhile, the powder will still be in her manger from morning feed but, eventually, she licks it all.

Quality and Affordable Electrolytes
I love using SmartLytes® Powder to encourage my horse to drink. It has all the electrolytes and salt my horse needs, especially in the summertime. My horse never drinks enough water and has been very dehydrated on multiple occasions, so I bought the SmartLytes Powder. What drew me to the SmartLytes Powder is it is a very affordable option, and it has everything my horse needs to help replace all the minerals he loses when he sweats. Another fun fact about this product is it smells so good! Not only does my horse like the smell, but I love it too!
After adding it to my horse's daily feed for a few weeks, I noticed a huge difference in his water consumption. It also seemed like he had a little bit more energy due to the electrolytes as well, as he is normally more lethargic in the hot weather. Great product! I highly recommend it!

Good product, sadly my mare wouldn’t eat it
The actual product is probably great, but sadly my mare wouldn’t eat it. We received samples of SmartPak’s powder electrolytes and pellet electrolytes and she would only eat the pelleted formula so we ended up going with that one.

Would not eat it
My horse did not like the taste. He kept dumping his feed tub over. I tried giving him half than worked up to the full amount. When I got over half the dose he would not eat it. I split up way was left among all 3 horses and switched back to Apple a day.

Works!
My senior horse decided that he did not want to drink water while being stalked during the days of summer. I started giving him these electrolytes, and now he drinks like a pro in his stall! He gets soaked food so the powder dissolved and he eats it with no issues.

Mare would not eat
My mare would not eat her grains with these electrolytes if given in the quantity suggested. We had to give less than half of each daily dosage for her to eat her grains. I guess she does not like the taste.

Not a hit
Unfortunately my gelding will not eat this product :(. Normally he eats almost everything but when I put this in his food, even mixed thoroughly with water, he spills his food out everywhere and refuses to eat. Really wanted to like this product. Maybe try the pellets instead.

Keeps my old horse on water!
My old gelding decided this winter that he didn't want to drink water, which lead to a mild colic episode. I had bought a bucket of this for my other horse for when I travel with him so I thought I'd just throw some on my old guy's grain to see if he'd even eat it. I was skeptical because my non-picky horse I originally got them for won't touch his grain when this is in it. However, my old guy gobbled this up! I have now added it to his daily SmartPaks and will probably keep him on it year round to make sure he stays on water. As for my other horse, I'll definitely try the pellet form for him next time!

Even the filly from TN who is in her first year of work has been sweating well and working great in the relentless Florida humidity.

My horse won’t eat it.
I added this supplement to my monthly SmartPak’s with the intention of helping my horse out during the hot summer months (May through October). I have noticed that he is more comfortable when performing in the heat, however I also noticed that he has not been eating the supplement. He must only be getting what’s on his grain.I checked his bucket today and it appears that their is powder residue still leftover from at least a weeks worth of supplements. He is a horse who usually licks his bucket clean. I would suggest that SmartPak change the flavor. Guess I will be switching to the pellet form.

Amazing Electrolyte!
I love this in my SmartPak. I put it in my horses dinner which is made up of alfalfa cubes and sweet feed grain. He eats it in his first mouthful and loves it! Always takes it willingly and clearly loves the cherry flavor. I definitely think that having this added in his SmartPak has helped to keep him better hydrated. He and I are both from Maryland, but are currently living in Florida. The severe heat is new for him and he sweats just standing in his pasture. I wanted to be sure he had something extra to help him stay hydrated. I would recommend this product. Good price and easy to use.

Worked Wonderfully!
My horse lives in a very cold area, and even though the barn is kept pretty warm, he didn't drink as much water as he needed over the winter. We noticed him being dehydrated almost all the time. We started him on SmartLytes, and within a few days he was drinking a regular amount and totally hydrated again. Worth noting, he is never a picky eater and ulcer treatment made him used to all sorts of strange tastes in his foods. He ate it very happily!

Horse won't touch it
I love the price and ingredients for this product, but I can't speak to how well it works as my horse won't touch it! He's not a picky eater, he normally licks the supplements out of the bottom of his bucket, including powders, but when this is in his grain, he won't take a single bite. Not sure if it's the smell or what. It's too bad, it's a good supplement and I wanted it to work!

Made a huge difference...
I have given these to my harness race horse for almost a year. He is a very picky drinker - when he travels to race, he refuses water. After he trains, he never drinks enough. I worried about him becoming dehydrated and not being able to perform his best. The gets these every day in his SmartPaks, and they encourage him to drink. He finished 85-90 percent of his 15 gallons of water daily. He will drink a full 5 gallon bucket of warm water now after jogging. These are well worth the comfort of mind - I never worry about him not drinking or getting sick or weak during race season.

Wow!
I'm impressed honestly. I used to feed another electrolyte but the smartpaks are so convient and my horse actually likes this one. She went on a drinking strike during winter and after two days on this she started to drink again. And it's affordable .. also it smells SO good

Great deal
My gelding is prone to colic and with the cold weather he was not drinking enough. This helped him and is full of other good minerals that most other electrolytes don't have.

Great product!
I bought this supplement to give to my horse to supplement for his lack of being able to graze and no source of selenium. Not only does he love it, but I know he is now getting everything he needs.
