After driving long time, when out of car felt a bit dazed and when i put my head down the room started to spinning. what caused this?

Dehydration: If you did not drink water or other liquids during the long drive, you were probably dehydrated and pooling of blood in your legs on standing up caused a fall in blood pressure. You should stay well hydrated. Wish you good health! - Have a diet rich in fresh vegetables, fruits, whole grains, milk and milk products, nuts, beans, legumes, lentils and small amounts of lean meats. Avoid saturated fats. Drink enough water daily, so that your urine is mostly colorless. Exercise at least 150 minutes/week and increase the intensity of exercise gradually. Do not use tobacco, alcohol, weed or street drugs in any form. Practice safe sex, if you have sex.
