I've noticed my heart rate goes up to 110 or 120 beats per minute when I eat breakfast or lunch, and then it drops back to around 90 afterwards. I'm keeping track of this with my smart band. Is this something I should be concerned about?

No need to worry thats common,you can ignore it

I'm really confused about what the normal blood pressure value is supposed to be. I've read online that it's 12080, but then I've also heard from doctors that 14090 is normal, and some even say up to 160100 isn't a problem. I'm really anxious about this and just want to know what the actual normal range for blood pressure is.

It depends on age But. < or =14090 is ok
