Hydrate Support is based on betaine, also known as trimethylglycine or TMG. Betaine is a modified amino acid that occurs naturally in plants such as linseeds, beets, cereals and in us. According to Dr Eleanor Kellon VMD, betaine can help horses that are difficult to hydrate and can support muscle bulk and function, as well as heat tolerance and endurance. It is one of the organic renal osmolytes, a nonmineral which helps maintain a water drawing effect in the kidney. When salt supplementation is not enough, Hydrate Support can help conserve water.
