The best rehydration solution for mom is coconut water. 

I have never understood suggesting something containing toxic ingredients to a sick or recovering person. Or anyone for that matter. 

One of those moments that made a great impression on me was when I was 23 years old. My father was dying and losing weight rapidly. He was given ensure. I knew nothing about nutrition then, but will never forgot thinking, "Well, this crap will kill him if the cancer doesn't". I do not mean that sarcastically. I am serious. Synthetic vitamins, dyes, flavorings, cheap protein or fats, rancid oils--none of those things heal the body.
