👉 Refresh fluid, also known as refresh electrolyte solution or oral rehydration solution (ORS), is a specially formulated mixture designed to replenish fluids and electrolytes lost through dehydration, particularly in cases of diarrhea or excessive sweating. It typically contains a balanced ratio of water, sodium, potassium, and other essential minerals like glucose and citrate, which enhance the absorption of water in the intestines. This solution is crucial for maintaining hydration and preventing complications such as electrolyte imbalance, which can occur when the body loses more fluids than it takes in. ORS is commonly used in medical settings and is also recommended for travelers or individuals engaging in prolonged physical activities to quickly restore hydration levels.
