Answer 1
Dehydration occurs when the body loses more water than it takes in. Vomiting, diarrhea, the use of drugs that increase urine excretion (diuretics), profuse sweating (for example, during heat waves, particularly with prolonged exertion), and decreased water intake can lead to dehydration.
Answer:
1 Dehydration is caused when people lose more body water than they take in. So it can be caused by disorders or problems that make people lose fluid, such as gastroenteritis with vomiting and diarrhea, sweating profusely in hot weather, and uncontrolled diabetes.
2 There are two major types of carbohydrates (or carbs) in foods: simple and complex. Simple carbohydrates: These are also called simple sugars. They're found in refined sugars, like the white sugar you see in a sugar bowl.
3Oral rehydration therapy
Oral rehydration therapy is a type of fluid replacement used to prevent and treat dehydration, especially that due to diarrhea. It involves drinking water with modest amounts of sugar and salts, specifically sodium and potassium. Oral rehydration therapy can also be given by a nasogastric tube.
4 When your child is exposed to sunlight, it helps his body synthesize vitamin D in the skin. And it doesn't take much time in the sun to produce adequate amounts of vitamin D.
5 Advertisement. The most common cause of goiters worldwide is a lack of iodine in the diet. In the United States, where the use of iodized salt is common, a goiter is more often due to the over- or underproduction of thyroid hormones or to nodules in the gland itself.
