We don't have a product for only showtime. Or immediately prior to show (night before etc...).

If you're not working on that at least 30 days prior to show not much you can do the night before is going to be successful. Most of those tricks or magical potions center around electrolytes, and moving water into the muscle cell.

The muscle cell is about 72% water. When the pig is dehydrated the pig loses some muscle shape due to water loss. Using an electrolyte to rehydrate the pig facilitates movement of water into the muscle cell, especially those electrolytes using dextrose or another sugar as the medium.

To answer your question HONOR Show Chow doesn't currently have an electrolyte.

Thank you! For all you do on here! It's really helpful! We usually start with fitter 35, champion drive, and paylean for top shape and have had good success, I was just wondering with all the great feeds, and additives purina has that they would have something like that as well!
