Drinking room temperature water causes a transient increase in blood pressure (pressor response). This phenomenon is also observed in healthy individuals and disappears immediately after drinking (Endo et al., JJPysiol 2002). It is believed to be associated with the stimulation of mechanoreceptors due to the contraction of swallowing-related muscles (Abe et al., J. Appl. Physiol 2013).
In a previous study involving healthy subjects, we demonstrated that drinking 200 mL of cold water or cold carbonated water enhanced the pressor response during ingestion compared to room temperature water, and that this pressor response was sustained. This suggested that drinking cold or cold carbonated water might be useful for improving and preventing orthostatic hypotension (Kubota et al., Front. Neurol 2022). It was further suggested that this pressor response during drinking is modulated by cold and carbonation stimuli, and that the sustained pressor response post-ingestion might be triggered by a decrease in core body temperature. Notably, mean blood pressure during cold water ingestion increased by over 15 mmHg in young adults and over 20 mmHg in older adults.
However, that study was conducted with participants in a resting seated position, and it remains unknown whether a similar beneficial pressor response can be elicited during an orthostatic challenge.
Therefore, the purpose of this study is to investigate whether a similar pressor effect can be achieved during an orthostatic challenge.

No intervention; after 10 minutes of supine rest, participants underwent a 15-minute standing challenge, followed by 5 minutes of supine rest again.
200mL of water at approximately 37 degree; After 10 minutes of supine rest, a 15-minute standing challenge is performed (with 1 minute of drinking water after 5 minutes of standing), followed by another 5 minutes of supine rest.
200mL of water at approximately 4 degree; After 10 minutes of supine rest, a 15-minute standing challenge is performed (with 1 minute of drinking water after 5 minutes of standing), followed by another 5 minutes of supine rest.
