Oral Rehydration Spoons (ORS)

Oral Rehydration Spoons (ORS) are simple but effective tools in restoring health.  The spoons have two different sized ends; one for sugar and one for salt.  When these amounts of sugar and salt are combined with clean water, a sustainable home-based solution is created for dehydration, a leader killer of children in the developing world.  ORS usage is one of the lessons our team will teach in Nicaragua in just two weeks, with spoons being given out to families who attend the Health Education classes.
