How it works
ORS uses the sodium-glucose cotransporter to maximise absorption even during gastroenteritis. Maintaining electrolyte balance stabilises autonomic nervous system tone and reduces nausea.
Sip slowly in small volumes (5–15ml every few minutes) if vomiting is present. Ice chips or popsicles may be better tolerated. Treats hydration, not the underlying cause.
Dietary changes
Consider speaking to a GP, dietitian, or naturopath before making significant changes to your diet, particularly if you have an existing health condition.

“Some improvement but not as dramatic as I hoped. Might need longer to see full benefit. Still continuing.”
