Question
Do you remember that in Class IV you made a solution of sugar and salt? Nitu’s father also made this and gave her. Why do you think this is given to someone who has vomiting and lose motions?

Solution
In case of vomiting and loose motions, the amount of water, salt, and sugar decrease in the body. This can be a dangerous situation. Sugar and salt solution is given to replenish this loss.
