Fizzy water vs. fainting: can bubbles keep you steady?
NCT ID NCT05621460
First seen Apr 24, 2026 · Last updated May 23, 2026 · Updated 7 times
Summary
This study looks at whether carbonated (fizzy) water can help people stay steady on their feet better than plain water. Drinking water is known to raise blood pressure and reduce fainting risk, but it's unclear if the bubbles add extra benefit by stretching the stomach. Researchers will measure how long 25 healthy volunteers can stand upright before feeling faint after drinking either carbonated or still water.
