The theme for 2019 is \u201cThe Amrut in Dehydration\u201d which is to shed light on the significance of ORS in the prevention of dehydration in kids suffering from diarrhea.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When I was growing up, I clearly remember there were commercials on TV which showed kids crying due to diarrhea and an old lady would turn up and tell the mother to give \u201cORS\u201d to the kid. So it was on TV that I actually got to know about ORS and its importance to treat dehydration caused by diarrhea.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The second I got a clear idea was when one of my cousins had diarrhea and my Mom advised my aunt to give him sugar and salt solution (well, only later I got to know that this is the homemade ORS) to prevent water and salt loss from the body.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Oral rehydration solution or salt (ORS) is rightly called as \u201cThe Amrut in Dehydration\u201d because is is one of the severe health complications caused by diarrhea in kids below 5 years of age. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), diarrhoeal disease is the second leading cause of death in kids under the age of 5 all over the world[1]. It is the third leading cause of childhood deaths in India and accounts for 13% of all deaths\/year in children under 5 years of age[2]. Globally, <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">it is estimated that diarrhea affects nearly 1.7 billion kids every year and around 5,25,000 children under five years of age die every year[1].\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Diarrhea &#8211; Here&#8217;s more about it<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Diarrhea is <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">defined <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">as the passage of three or more loose or liquid stools per day (or more frequent passage than is normal for the individual). It can last several days, leaving the body with no water and electrolytes, which are necessary for proper functioning of the body.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is usually caused by a bacterial or viral infection but can also be due to contaminated food. In some cases, it could be a sign of an underlying health condition such as inflammatory bowel disease or irritable bowel syndrome. The common symptoms of diarrhea include loose, frequent and watery stools with abdominal pain.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Diarrhea is mostly caused due to poor hygiene and sanitation but the serious complications are resulted due to severe dehydration seen in diarrhea. In fact, most kids who die due to diarrhea die because of severe dehydration and fluid loss. Dehydration caused by diarrhea can be prevented and effectively treated by giving ORS. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Here\u2019s more on everything you need to know about ORS and its role in dehydration and diarrhea.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>What Is Oral Rehydration Solution (ORS)?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In simple terms, ORS is nothing but a mixture of salts and sugar. When diarrhea occurs, water and electrolytes (sodium, chloride, potassium, bicarbonate, etc.) are lost from the body through the body. If the fluid and electrolyte balance in the body is not maintained by replacing the lost salts and water, dehydration occurs. To prevent dehydration, ORS is recommended[3]. The salt and sugar mixture in ORS stimulates water and electrolyte absorption from the gut thereby aiding in the replacement of the lost salts in case of diarrhea and vomiting[4].\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.1mg.com\/online-consultation?utm_source=articletrack&amp;utm_medium=consultation\"><strong>**Consult India\u2019s best doctors here**<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p><b>How To Make ORS?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ORS is commercially available in the form of sachets and solutions. If ORS packets are not available, you can make it simply at home using common ingredients available in the kitchen.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For <\/span><b>making ORS using a commercial sachet<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, all you have to do is buy a pack and follow the instructions mentioned on the pack carefully. Here are a few steps you need to follow while<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8211; Take a glass and empty the contents of the ORS packet into a glass.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8211; Now add filtered water (or boiled water which is cooled down) in the glass. Check the pack to know the amount of water to be used.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8211; Stir with the help of a spoon so as to mix all the ingredients properly.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can even <\/span><b>make ORS at home<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to restore salt and sugar balance in the body.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8211; Take a cup (200 ml) of the clean water. Make sure the water is boiled and cooled down\/filtered or bottled water. Do not use tap water as it carries a high risk of contamination which in turn can worsen the condition.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8211; To this, add a teaspoon (5 gms) of sugar and a pinch of salt.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8211; Stir to mix all the ingredients properly and ensure the sugar is dissolved completely.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.1mg.com\/categories\/-30?utm_source=articletrack&amp;utm_medium=Stomach-Care\"><strong>Heal Your Gut And Heal Yourself..!! 1mg Exclusively Brings Best Selling Products For Bad Stomach.

These include:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8211; Adults can drink the solution directly from a glass but for kids, use a spoon or a cup to feed. It is advised to not use a bottle to feed a kid.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8211; Do not use milk, soup, fruit juices, etc instead of water to mix the contents. Also, avoid adding extra sugar or salt to the solution.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8211; When making ORS at home, make sure you add the right amounts of salt and sugar as adding these in excess can worsen the condition.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8211; It is always advised to make a fresh drink every time and throw away the solution (if there is any unfinished drink). This is because keeping the drink uncovered or using the drink for more than 24 hours can up the risk of bacterial infections.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ORS is considered to be a safe and most effective treatment for diarrhea (both in kids and adults)[3]. However, if the condition is worsening or if the symptoms still persist it is best to consult your doctor for a detailed diagnosis and treatment.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><em>(The article is reviewed by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.1mg.com\/editorial-policy-processes\/dr.-swati-mishra-12\">Dr. Swati Mishra, Medical Editor<\/a>)<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Recommended Reads:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.1mg.com\/articles\/top-7-home-remedies-for-dehydration\/\"><strong>Top 7 Home Remedies For Dehydration<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.1mg.com\/articles\/how-to-prevent-dehydration%ef%bb%bf\/\"><strong>10 Tips to Prevent Dehydration in Diarrhea<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p><b>References:<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1.
