I spent 14 hrs in ER a few wks ago, severely dehydrated. I drank as much water & took in electrolytes like crazy when I got home, but could not rehydrate.
Until I ingested a healthy amount of bioavailable flax oil. Very rich in omega 3.

Can anyone tell me why med pros don't put some omega 3 in rehydration iv bags? I was so dehydrated, I had a deep crease on bridge of nose. 2.5 iv bags later, still severely dehydrated. I guess my body couldn't use the saline solution without omegas.
