Description
During exercise, the appearance of H+ ions in the muscles and in the blood modifies the pH and the acid-base balance, leading to disturbances in muscle contractions and in the production of energy in the form of ATP (Adenosine TriPhosphate).
The body naturally possesses buffer molecules (bicarbonates, phosphates, etc.) that enable it to maintain the acid-base balance. In athletes, where this balance is fragile, the supplementation of buffer substances would improve the capacity of the buffer system, i.e. the elimination of lactate and push back the fatigue threshold.
LACTOMUSCLE is mainly composed of sodium citrate known as a buffer agent. LACTOMUSCLE is particularly recommended for athletic horses prone to post-exercise muscular disorders.
