Cholera causes rapid severe dehydration and often leads to death. Oral rehydration therapy, feeding dilute salts and glucose is very effective because:
1. bacterial damage to intestinal transport of ions is reversed by glucose
2. the active transport of glucose and sodium from the cell to the intestine is still intact
3. the secondary active transport or co-transport systems of the intestine are still functioning
4. the dilute salts and glucose cause removal of excess water from the body
