DIY Horse Popsicles

Keep your horse cool with Stress-Dex popsicles!

 

Stress-Dex® popsicles are a fun and healthy treat when temperatures rise! Electrolytes in a horse’s body help to maintain the right amount of fluid in and around cells, preventing dehydration. During times of exercise, heat, stress or illness always keep fresh, clean water available and boost its hydrating power with a quality electrolyte supplement like Stress-Dex® Oral Electrolyte Powder.
