Core Tip	Diarrheal disease remains a leading cause of death in children and the elderly throughout the world. The cause of death is dehydration secondary to severe diarrhea. Intestinal calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR) is a newly uncovered ancient antidiarrheal receptor system that appears to exert profound effects not only on intestinal secretion, absorption and motility but also on gut permeability and inflammatory responses. Activating this unusual machinery reverses pathophysiological changes of both secretory and inflammatory diarrheas. Considering its unique property of using simple nutrients as activators, it is now possible that through targeting of CaSR and developing novel oral rehydrating solutions that are inexpensive and practical to use in all countries, these diarrhea-associated deaths are reduced or eliminated.
