Number Fourteen: Rehydration Is Key

When your child has diarrhea, the foods he or she eats are important. Choosing the right foods and drinks can help relieve your child's diarrhea. Making sure your child drinks plenty of fluids is also important. It is easy for a child with diarrhea to lose too much fluid and become dehydrated.

| Dysentery usually clears up after a few days and no treatment is needed. However, it is important to replace any fluids that have been lost through diarrhoea.

Staying hydrated is so important to your overall health, Tina. I recommend you drink at least eight glasses of water a day. By glasses, I mean that each glass should be at least 8 ounces. If you find it hard to drink this much water, try adding a sugar-free water flavoring to the water. This can help make the water more appealing to taste and you can change the flavor each day. Just be sure the flavoring you add is sugar-free because high sugar drinks will increase your blood sugar. Even though it can be hard to drink water, it is vital to help keep your blood sugar levels down. Water also helps to keep your kidneys working properly. When taking your diabetic medications, be sure to drink a full glass of water. By drinking that full glass of

Also, an estimated 4 million cases and over 100,000 deaths occur each year due to this bacteria. Because the intestines are the site in which fluid is absorbed from food, unfortunately for people suffering from the bacteria, the intestines overdo their job and one suffers from diarrhea. Diarrhea is a homeostatic imbalance, in which stools are “watery” (Hoehn, 892).

Dehydration’s symptoms are tiredness, lethargy, decrease of performance, cramping, fatigue, nausea and vomiting; these symptoms are negative as a dancer has to be healthy. Even if the dancer drinks a smaller amount of water or drinks like Gatorade and it is not enough then it can affect the dancer too so they should drink enough, the way they can know how much water they consume is by weighing themselves during the performance for instance if the dancer has lost 1 kilogram of weight they should replace the loss of fluids by drinking 1 litre of water. Although experts recommend that not only dancers but people in general should consume an average of around two to eight glasses of fluid ( water, tea, coffee, Gatorade etc..) a day; Dancers may need to consume more fluid to replace the amount they have lost, it is also essential for them to drink fluids before, during and after dancing.

Diarrhea being expelled from the body is not normal. This indicates that there is an issue within the gastrointestinal tract. Normally the small intestine absorbs most of the water in chyme. Approximately 95% of water is absorbed in the small intestine by osmosis (Marieb, 2014). The remaining water is usually absorbed in the large intestine, and some is even used to help soften the stool that is supposed to be pushed out. Peristalsis and segmentation in the small intestine helps mucosal cells absorb the water within the chyme. According to Marieb (2014), water moves freely in both directions of the intestinal mucosa, and active transport of solutes into the mucosal cells creates net osmosis because of the concentration gradient established. Therefore, water uptake is paired to solute uptake, and then affects the absorption of substances that

"One question many have is what causes diarrhea and what needs to be done. Healthy bowel movements typically consist of 75 percent water and 25 percent waste, and each person has

Dehydration is the assassin should not be overlooked, this sentence don't talk big. This problem is body can not work normal functions. If people do not replace lost water or fix the causes, people will get dehydration. There are three significant causes why people were dehydrated are elderly, diarrhea and

Diarrhoea predominant: Diarrhoea after eating or in the morning, urgent and unable to be avoided.

In severely malnourished children with diarrhea intravenous fluids should be restricted to patients showing signs of shocks, other severely malnourished children should be given an oral rehydration salts solution with a lower sodium concentration and higher potassium concentration than the standard WHO rehydration salt solution.

Many people suffer from constipation. The faeces become very hard and move slowly through the intestine, and a lot of effort is required to remove them. In addition, abdominal discomfort and a general feeling of ill health accompany this condition.

The digestive tract is a vital part of our survival because we need the broken down nutrients from what we eat and drink to survive. It can also be a very sensitive area because certain things can upset our stomach and cause acid reflux, diarrhea, and may even cause us to vomit. But some of these problems can be caused by the bacteria in food we eat too but, the digestive tract involves more than just the stomach, large and small intestine, the liver, etc. it also includes the oral cavity. We all know that we can get microbial diseases in the digestive tract and there are many. The two that I chose to focus on is periodontal disease and shigellosis. Periodontal disease can be very serious because it involves our teeth and that is how we chew our food.

cholerae, epidemics of cholera are caused by two toxigenic serogroups: O1 and O139.6 The O groups are the cause of widespread cholera epidemics and are followed closely by the World Health Organization and the Centers for Disease Control.7 Non-O group cholera can cause mild to severe diarrhea, but generally does not result in fever or bloody stool.7 As neither Carmen nor the other patients presented fever or bloody stool, it is possible that they are infected with less toxic V. cholerae. Therefore, their stool cultures would have to be further studied to identify whether it is one of the two toxigenic strains to be confirmed as epidemic-causing

Giardiasis is a diarrheal disease that is caused by the flagellated protozoan parasite Giardia lamblia (also known as Giardia intestinalis). Giardiasis is transmitted via the fecal-oral route. When a person is infected with Giardiasis, the parasite lives in the intestines of its host and passes through the feces. Outside the body, Giardia can survive up to a few months (CDC, 2012a). People become infected with Giardia by swallowing contaminated food or water, or touching a contaminated surface. Contaminated surfaces can include anything that might have feces on it, such as a diaper pail, changing table, or bathroom door handles. Having direct contact with someone who is infected with the parasite also is a way the infection is transmitted. Giardiasis cannot be transmitted through the blood (CDC, 2012a).
