'Consume only WHO recommended ORS' l Normal ORS degrading your health l Dr Sivaranjani

Diarrheal illness remains a global concern, particularly impacting children with significant morbidity and mortality rates. Presently, oral rehydration solution (ORS) serves as the standard treatment for acute diarrhea in pediatric cases. While effective in reducing mortality rates, ORS fails to address diarrheal symptoms, leading to reduced compliance and therapeutic effectiveness among caregivers. In a discussion with Moneycontrol's Sonal Mehrotra, Dr Sivaranjani, a pediatrician and social worker, highlighted concerns about FSSAI-approved ORS, noting their high sugar content. Dr Sivaranjani recommended adhering to only WHO-recommended ORS formulations for better health outcomes.
