Word Of Advice

Take adequate rest because resting allows your body to recover and save energy during episodes of diarrhoea. Drink more fluids to compensate for the electrolyte loss caused by diarrhoea. Water, clear broths, and oral rehydration solutions (ORS) can be helpful in maintaining hydration and electrolyte balance. Avoid consuming contaminated food or water.
