Oral rehydration solution (ORS) consists of 25.2 g sugar and 2.1 g of salt in 1 L of water.

Explanation:

This is the recipe for home-made ORS.

The ORS recipe recommended by WHO and UNICEF (also known as reduced-osmolarity ORS) is:

$Compound m m m l g/L m mmol/L m mOsmol/L$ $bb("Compound"color(white)(mmml)"g/L"color(white)(m)"mmol/L"color(white)(m)"mOsmol/L")$
$NaCl m m m m m m m l l 2.6 m m l l 44.5 m m m m m 89$ $"NaCl"color(white)(mmmmmmmll)2.6color(white)(mmll)44.5color(white)(mmmmm)89$
$Glucose m m m m m m 13.5 m m l l 75 m m m m m l l 75$ $"Glucose"color(white)(mmmmmm)13.5color(white)(mmll)75color(white)(mmmmmll)75$
$KCl m m m m m m m m l 1.5 m m l l 20 m m m m m l l 40$ $"KCl"color(white)(mmmmmmmml)1.5color(white)(mmll)20color(white)(mmmmmll)40$
${Na}_{3} C_{6} H_{5} O_{7} \cdot 2 H_{2} O m 2.9 m m l l 10 m m m m m l l 40$ $"Na"_3"C"_6"H"_5"O"_7·2"H"_2"O"color(white)(m)2.9color(white)(mmll)10color(white)(mmmmmll)40$
$m m m m m m m m m m l Total Osmolarity = m 244$ $color(white)(mmmmmmmmmml)"Total Osmolarity ="color(white)(m)244$

${Na}_{3} C_{6} H_{5} O_{7} \cdot 2 H_{2} O$ $"Na"_3"C"_6"H"_5"O"_7·2"H"_2"O"$ is sodium citrate dihydrate.

The normal osmolarity of blood is about 300 mOsmol/L.
