It doesn't sound like an allergy to me. Food allergies usually show up in the skin or digestion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 26, 2007 Report Share Posted April 26, 2007 I forgot to mention another cause of increased heart rate is an allergy reaction to a food. Steph Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted April 26, 2007 Report Share Posted April 26, 2007 You can also get racing heart from toxins, when they are mobilized. Like in the heat/humidity, sauna, exercise/sweating.

Guest guest Posted April 26, 2007 Report Share Posted April 26, 2007 My dr had me avoid food then when I introduced it back in. I need to sit awhile and check my pulse record then proceed to eating the food. Check my pulse two more times and it it went up more that 10 . I was reacting to the food. About 30 mins time sitting to see what happened. L.P. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 26, 2007 Report Share Posted April 26, 2007 You can also get heart arrhythmia from malnutrition, as found. Magnesium potassium and calcium play prominent roles.

Guest guest Posted April 26, 2007 Report Share Posted April 26, 2007 Hi, Allergies to food, mold, fungus, yeast & also toxicity can race pulse. Racing pulse is the best indicator used in Kinesiology. If you are using fiber pillow (Some Chinese makes), they use Formaldehyde during manufacture, extremely toxic, even traces remaining in your pillow can race pulse. (Not a laughing matter) A patient got chest pains (For no apparent reason), tachycardia & HBP the very next day of using fiber pillow. Depends on individual sensitivity too. He spent 2.5 yrs in diagnosis etc., & finally linked it to buying fiber pillow. He changed his pillow to foam type, & in 2 days chest pains stopped.
