The Science Behind "Electo-Aid Gel"
An insight into the science behind "Electo-Aid Gel"-:
The vast majority of a mammal’s bodily functions, including horses, involve ion transfer mechanisms, an ion being an atom with additional electrical charge, either positive “+” or negative “-” . The Potassium atom symbol “K”, has the Potassium ion symbol K+ showing that the atom is carrying a net positive charge, In particular the Potassium/Sodium balance, more correctly called the (K+ - Na+) – ATPase is the electrochemical gradient that is powered by the free energy of ATP, the chief energy carrying molecule that all mammals possess and utilise. This ionic balance is critical within close limits, so a variance can upset the energy available to many parts of the body including the muscles. "Electo-Aid Gel" takes the required ionic ratios into account in the formulation of the product.
