    Racing heart after eatin

    Does anyone have a high heart rate after eating? It can be just a small meal. Mainly carbs..or fast food but my heart rate will go up to around 100-112 while sitting and pounds hard and fast. Usually happens 30 minutes to 1 hour after eating. Calms down usually an hour later.

    Yes, happens to me frequently.

    I find it helps to eat a little bit more slowly, drink plenty of fluids with the meal and try sitting upright for an hour after eating (I used to lay on the sofa fairly often).

    It's nothing to worry about.

    Could be the salt. If I eat very salty foods, it raises my blood pressure.

    It's normal for your heart to speed up after eating. I'f you're already senstive or suffer from heart palpitations it might just feel worse
