I made ORS today

[ACertainPassingUser]

After completing my task in a hot day, and sweats a lot, I decided to do even more stamina draining activity at night instead of resting properly.

As expected, I feel even more tired and exhausted now at 2AM and now I can't sleep because I'm feeling so thirsty despite having drink multiple glass of water. My mouth feels full and tired of water, but my throat and head feels thirsty.

Quick Google search shows it's a sign of Dehydration, so I decided to make ORS water at home. The recipe is simple, ½ teaspoon of salt, 2 tablespoon of sugar (or 6 teaspoon of sugar), and 1 litre of water. ORS sachet is pain to buy. I used empty 1 litre bottle from fridge, and get the salt.

It's my first time drinking ORS despite knowing the recipe since long time ago. It's a sweet sugar water with tasty hint of salt. I only drink about 500-600ml and left the rest in the fridge for tomorrow.

I'm no longer thirsty, so I can sleep now.

Dude... are you trolling?

ORS means Oral Reciprocated Sex, or a more polite way of saying let's 69. Usually implied that the one offering is gay and looking for sane. Has have fallen out of favor since people stopped posting in newspapers.

So what the hell is this ORS water?

As I take it upon myself to educate the poor tards of the community too lazy to do a quick google search, ORS is Oral Rehydration Solution water. Its a mix of glucose(sugar), electrolytes(salt) and water that helps treat mild dehydration from diarrhea or excess sweat.

And yes it's much better than pure distilled water you buy at the store that have zero minerals at all.

Your body needs minerals, so any distilled water drank regularly is not healthy for you even though it will quench your thirst. I mean I guess you get the minerals from foods you ingest but it still ain't a good idea to skip out on mineral water

They gave us ORS Packets in a special training school I went to during the summer. Temps hit triple digits with humidity and heat indexes pushing it into the 120s.

They shoved so much of that crap down our throats that dudes were sweating salt crystals. Even with the juice packets they gave us, the water tasted like it was fresh from the ocean. I got enough crystals in my back that my back started stinging.

Use your imagination, dear one.

I finally drink the last leftover ORS in the fridge. Definitely a good thirst reliever after waking up.
