I'm a bit worried about my blood pressure. Normally, it sits around 12090, but every now and then, it'll spike to about 130100, or drop to 10080. It used to be at 10070. I'm trying to find a natural solution and wondering if Ayurveda could help manage this, as I really don't want to be on medication forever. I lead a pretty active lifestyle, and I'm really careful with my diet and regular exercise. What do you think? Is there an alternative approach I could try?

I'm wondering if it's normal for my heart rate to go up after I drink alcohol. Is there a medical reason for this, or should I be concerned about it? Can you explain what's going on?
Yes, alcohol consumption can lead to an increase in heart rate. This is because alcohol is a vasodilator, which means it causes the blood vessels to relax and widen. As a result, the heart has to work harder to pump blood throughout the body, leading to an increase in heart rate. Additionally, alcohol can also stimulate the release of certain hormones, such as adrenaline, which can further elevate heart rate. It is important to note that excessive alcohol consumption can have negative effects on the heart and cardiovascular system. If you experience persistently high heart rate after alcohol consumption, it is advisable to limit your intake and consult with a healthcare professional for further evaluation.
