Product Review: RepleniMash From Purina
It’s the thick of summer and boy, is it hot out there. Living in Florida, I’m always mindful of the heat and how it can affect my horse, both from a health and performance perspective. I want to do whatever I can to help keep him comfortable on the warmest days, and to help him recover as quickly as possible after our rides.
A bucket of Gatorade after a hot morning ride goes a long way with my Thoroughbred gelding. But I recently found something even better.
Purina makes a product called RepleniMash – which is similar to a bran mash, but packed with so much more. RepleniMash helps keep horses hydrated with electrolytes, supports cells and shiny coats, and includes Purina Outlast to support gastric and hindgut health. Not to mention RepleniMash is nutritionally balanced to compliment my horse’s current dietary routine.
RepleniMash is perfect to use after a hard workout, when traveling or if you want to encourage him to drink or eat. I’ve even used the mash to help disguise his supplements and medications that he sometimes picks over when fed in his usual grain. But most of all, RepleniMash is a healthy treat to offer to your horse whenever you want to show them a little extra love.
It’s super easy to feed. One to two pounds of the mash is all you need for a typical serving, which you combine with about 16 ounces of water. One pound of the mash contains a full serving of Outlast.
We’ve been feeding mashes to horses for many years, but more recent research suggests a traditional bran mash may contribute to digestive upset or imbalance. Purina’s RepleniMash is different – it’s nutritionally balanced and made with ingredients horses are accustomed to, including beet pulp, dried carrot, salt, flaxseed and more, to create a tasty but science-backed treat. It’s formulated without corn, alfalfa, oats and soy protein.
RepleniMash can be purchased online at any feed store near you which sells Purina products.
