A member asked:

Im 32 yrs old 130lbs, bmi 22.3, my bp is normal im worried about my heart rate its always on higher end like 85+ and highest is 102 everyday, is it ok?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No: Heart rate is controlled by the autonomic (automatic) nervous system. It is this that is out of balance. Commonest cause is sugar in diet.
