Add the water, one tablespoon of lemon juice, and one teaspoon of salt. Purée until smooth again. Taste the soup and adjust the salt or lemon juice if desired. Drinking too much alcohol can cause dehydration, and is what causes many of the symptoms we associate with having a hangover. Alcohol is a diuretic which means it causes excessive urination resulting in loss of water and, consequently, dehydration. Eat something – bananas and kiwis are a good source of potassium (a mineral you lose when you drink because of the diuretic effect of alcohol).

Remember that you need to replace the fluid you lose while you are exercising – don’t wait until you finish. The sooner you start to replace the fluid, the sooner you will recover. Dioralyte should be reconstituted with water and to the volume stated. A lesser or greater dilution may result in electrolyte imbalance. Dioralyte Sachets is a fast and effective rehydration treatment to help replace the loss of fluid and body salts, such as during episodes of dehydration due to flu.Drink bland liquids that are easy on the digestive system, such as water, soda water and isotonic drinks. The drink should be made up just before it is going to be taken. Throw away any remaining drink after 1 hour (or 24 hours if stored in a refrigerator). The doctor will calculate how much to give your baby, depending on how much they weigh. This is usually about one to one and a half times the amount of fluid your baby normally has in 24 hours. The exact time it takes for Dioralyte to work may depend on several factors, such as the severity of dehydration and the underlying cause of the symptoms. When vomiting is present with the diarrhoea, it is recommended that small amounts be taken frequently.

The amount depends on how much the baby weighs. The usual dose is 150-200 ml of the drink for each kg of the baby’s weight, each day. This can be given over 24 hours
