Neogen Stress Dex 20lb

I started using Stress-Dex during hotter weather and after longer rides to help replace electrolytes lost through sweat, and it's worked really well. My horse stays brighter, recovers faster, and seems more comfortable after exercise, especially on demanding days. The orange flavor is surprisingly palatable, whether it's added to his mash or added to his drinking water! If you're looking for an easy, palatable electrolyte supplement to support hydration and recovery, Stress-Dex is a great option to keep on hand!

bought this as a 'just in case'. came in useful during our 'dog days' this year. he really likes the flavor!

My pony has been having horrible diarrhea, and my vet recommended a few supplements, one being electrolytes. Problem is...she may be a porky pony, but she is the pickiest horse ON EARTH when it comes to supplements (she refuses it in a BRAN MASH!). So the vet recommended "Stress-Dex". She said, "It's funny, you wouldn't think a horse would like orange flavor, but mine eat it right up!". So, we ordered this with Pocahontas' next SmartPak, hoping to be able to get it down somehow. When it came, I looked at that bright orange powder, and literally said to myself out loud, "There is no way I am going to get her to eat this...". But I poured it into her bucket, along with 3 other supplements, and hoped for the best. The next morning, I brought everyone out their food, and watched her as she took a bite and shook her head. I was like, "oh great...here we go again". I left to get hay, and when I came back she was legit LICKING her bowl! I've never seen her so happy about a supplement! Thank you!!!

Love this stuff. The horses love the taste (I'll admit I even tried it, it's yummy), have yet to meet a horse that turns it down. I put it in their grain and they eat it right up (sometimes even lick the bucket clean). Note: the large bucket is CHALLENGING to get open

I first started using this product in 2009. I live in TX and thus, it is a hot, grueling summer about 10/12 months of the year. This product has kept all of my horses going since then, using the maintenance dose. All 7 of my horses love it, it is A-show approved and allowed, and I swear it works better than any other electrolyte I've tried. One of my horses likes it so much, he will lick it out of my hand. It dissolves in water really nicely as well.

This is the ONLY electrolyte that my senior mare will touch as she is VERY picky!! All my other horses eat it up just fine as well. Not sure why the horses would be attracted to an orange flavor, but they are and this product works great! I have used this brand of electrolyte solely for many years now and only purchase this one.

Picky eater LOVES this product! He licks his feed bucket clean every time he gets his Stress-Dex. Never leaves any behind and is great for daily use for horse in work.

My gelding, who is very picky about his supplements, eats these right up. They helped keep him hydrated through the long hot summer we had here in Michigan. I plan to use all through the cooler months, as well. My only complaint is that the most recent package arrived with the lid partly open - but SmartPak customer care is great and refunded me the amount of product lost during shipment. Just make sure you ask that the lid be taped on for shipping (if you get the tub - obviously not a problem in SmartPaks).

Love this product but PLEASE change the packaging - the lid is SO hard to get off!

I started using this product on my half percheron when she was 7. She wouldn't eat it at first in sweet feed or grain; mixed in, on bottom, or on top. She also would not drink it either. Eventually she caved (about a year later) when I just kept giving it to her. It works well enough. She has not had a hydration issue since she started eating it consistently. However, I have to give her about 2.5 times as much as recommended in the summer than in the winter, though yes she is very large and in moderate training. I think I will switch to SmartLytes, because of everything else it has in it for the same price. if you wanted jsut a very basic electrolyte though and your horse is not picky, this product is good for that.
