Raw sewage flows through the streets.
Imagine you are a doctor in a clinic here. One day a sick young woman enters the clinic……

Cholera bacteria produce a toxin which makes the epithelial cells secrete salt into the intestine.

You have to know something about absorption in the epithelial cells of the intestine.
Glucose and sodium are transported together from the intestine, across the cell and into the blood.

Oral Rehydration Therapy (ORT)
There are still 1.8 million deaths a year from diarrhea – but there would be millions more without ORT

” “”The discovery that sodium transport and glucose transport are coupled in the small intestine so that glucose accelerates absorption of solute and water (is) potentially the most important medical advance this century”
The Lancet, British Scientific Journal - 5th August, 1978

Sushruta, an ancient Indian medical scholar and the father of Ayurveda (1500 B.C.) had prescribed that cholera victims are to be:
"given to drink a profuse quantity of tepid water in which rock salt and molasses have been dissolved; or clarified water combined with rice gruel."
Sushruta Samhita III, verse II
