Vasovagal syncope, or more commonly known as fainting, is a condition that results in loss of consciousness which is usually transient without any prolonged complications, with rapid recovery and a return to normality afterwards. This condition is usually caused by low blood pressure or low heart rate or a combination of both. It is usually triggered by being in an upright position, particularly when there are other factors involved which predispose one to fainting which can include: dehydration, heat, stress, and being stood up in a single position for a long time.

People who faint need to think carefully about what and how much they drink. Think of your body as a water tank with a minimum level needed to feed to brain with blood and oxygen to keep alert and conscious. If the water tank level drops below this minimum level you are “dehydrated”. For people who faint, it is crucially important to keep this tank as full as possible so that even if the level drops (pools due to gravity) into your lower limbs, which can act as large collecting vessels in your legs, there is still enough supply to the brain.
