Description
Care Plus Oral Rehydration Salts contain a mixture of salts and glucose (sugar) that can be used to help rehydrate the body when required. Dehydration can be caused by various things such as extended exercise (particularly in a hot climate) and diarrhoea – the curse of many a traveller. Small children and older people can be particularly susceptible to suffering from dehydration in these circumstances.
Care Plus Oral Rehydration Salts can help by stimulating the intake of fluid from the intestines. Each packet contains 10 sachets and typically if diarrhoea is the problem you would drink the contents of one sachet dissolved in a glass of water after each attack.
Dehydration often occurs during and after physical exertion (sports) at high temperatures. Excessive sweating or other things where a lot of moisture is lost can also lead to dehydration symptoms. Be alert and make sure there is always O.R.S. is at your fingertips. A combination of the right amounts of salts and glucose increases the absorption of water during physical exertion or when the moisture balance in your body is out of balance.
Each sachet contains 5.3g of raspberry flavoured rehydration salts and should be dissolved in 200ml of water (a typical glass).
Care Plus Oral Rehydration Salts are supplied in a box with 10 x 5.3g sachets of raspberry flavour salts.
