Apex Neutralac Plus is a specialist nutritional supplement formulated to support muscle performance, buffering capacity and recovery in horses undertaking intense exercise.

The formula combines Beta-Alanine and Sodium Citrate. Beta-Alanine is a precursor to carnosine, a compound found in skeletal muscle that contributes to the buffering of hydrogen ions produced during high-intensity exercise.

Neutralac Plus is particularly relevant to horses involved in racing, endurance, eventing, show jumping, polo and polocrosse, as well as horses returning to fitness following a period away from work.

The convenient 115g individual sachets provide a simple, consistent daily feeding routine.

Who Is Neutralac Plus For?

Neutralac Plus is particularly suited to horses with demanding workloads, including:

Racehorses

For horses undertaking regular high-intensity training and racing.

Endurance Horses

For horses managing repeated days of exercise where maintaining appropriate nutritional support is important.

Eventing & Show Jumping Horses

Useful as part of a structured programme leading into periods of intensive training and competition.

Polo & Polocrosse Ponies

Suitable for horses and ponies undertaking repeated high-intensity work, including back-to-back chukkas.

Horses Returning to Fitness

Can be incorporated into a conditioning programme as horses progressively return to work following a layoff.

How It Works

Beta-Alanine & Carnosine

Beta-Alanine is a precursor to carnosine, a dipeptide naturally found in skeletal muscle.

Carnosine contributes to the muscle's ability to buffer hydrogen ions generated during intense exercise. Maintaining muscle buffering capacity is an important part of the physiological response to high-intensity work.

Because Beta-Alanine supplementation works cumulatively, consistent feeding over several weeks is recommended rather than using it only immediately before exercise.

Sodium Citrate

Sodium Citrate provides additional nutritional support for acid-base balance during demanding exercise.

Together, the two ingredients provide a targeted nutritional approach for horses undertaking high-intensity workloads.

Loading Window

Neutralac Plus is designed for consistent daily use, rather than being used as a last-minute competition-day supplement.

The supplied manufacturer guidance recommends starting supplementation approximately 4–6 weeks before a target competition or training campaign.

The manufacturer states that noticeable benefits typically become apparent from around week four onwards, as muscle carnosine levels increase.

Feeding Recommendations

Horses:
Feed one 115g sachet per day, mixed into the daily feed.

For the intended cumulative effect of Beta-Alanine, feed consistently for 4–6 weeks.

The supplied guidance states that Neutralac Plus is suitable for daily and long-term use.

Stack with Muscle Max

For horses undertaking particularly demanding training programmes, Neutralac Plus can be incorporated alongside a suitable muscle-building nutritional supplement.

The supplied product information specifically recommends pairing Neutralac Plus with Muscle Max, with Neutralac Plus providing nutritional support for muscle buffering and Muscle Max providing protein and amino-acid support.

Any combined supplementation programme should take the horse's complete ration and nutritional requirements into account.

Storage

  • Store in a cool, dry place.
  • Keep out of direct sunlight.
  • Keep sachets sealed until required.
