<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Dear friends, I believe I have seen an ad for
Pediolite, a Gatorade-like drink with electrolytes for children who are
dehydrated, presumably form being unable to keep fluids down (vomiting,
diarrhea). There are also diet drinks called things like Metrical
(sp?) and weight-gaining drinks for cancer patients or old folks--can't
recall the names. Sometimes during a hot summer I feed my horse
electrolytes (apple plus pectin?) to keep his weight up. I have read that
a hard-exercised horse can lose over 100 pounds in a day of extended trail
riding or eventing, but even my old plug uses up sweat just standing
there. Sincerely this time, Linda</FONT></DIV></BODY></HTML>
