Fair amount but...: Hemp hearts are one of the most nutrition-rich and dense of all foods, rich in complete protein, essential fatty acids, vitamins and minerals. They are also rich in phoshorous- this website says 3 tbsp (30 gms) has 45% of the daily value which would be 315 mg.

A Few Possibilities: The heart is generally well calibrated to deliver the precise amount of oxygen the body needs.  Defects in the heart's structure or function can undo this balance, but for most people with inappropriate heart racing, it's because of an abnormal heart rhythm (there are many types but they're collectively called svts - supraventricular tachycardias).  See a cardiologist for an evaluation if needed.
