Have you ever done yard work, then chug a cold drink and pass out on the lawn?!


Question:

Have you ever done yard work, then chug a cold drink and pass out on the lawn?

My eyes rolled so far in my head I fainted! It was such a nice cold drink! Plain lemonade. Why did this happen? Because I rolled my eyes really far back? Or did it have something to do with the temp of the drink?

Well, it wasn't that hot, and it wasn't a heat stroke, I regained consciousness as I hit the ground. (nice timing huh?)


Answers:

the problem is not with the drink. you were probably dehydrated, so you fainted as soon as you stopped exerting yourself-the lemonade is a coincidence. What you need to do is drink plenty of water before working, take breaks to get more water and drink afterwards too. By the time you feel thirsty, you are already 15% of the way to death from dehydration.
