im trying to find something that can actually help get my heart rate under control especially when I get nervous. I read somewhere that drinking tea is supposed to be amazing for this specifically green tea so i gave that a shot but honestly it just made me feel sick to my stomach lol so that's definitely a no go for me.
does anyone have a good supplement they'd recommend to help lower it and get things back down to where there supposed to be? id love to hear what actually works for u guys because i need to find something else since the tea thing was a total fail.
honestly man stay away from green tea if you're already nervous because the caffeine in it is just gonna make your heart race even more - no wonder it made you feel sick! id look into l-theanine instead. it is the stuff in tea that actually relaxes you but without the jitters and it works wonders for taking the edge off when you're stressed.
have you tried magnesium? i take it every night before bed and it totally chilled out my resting heart rate. if i’m feeling super anxious during the day i’ll grab some of those magnesium glycinate pills and it usually brings things back down to earth pretty quick. plus it helps with sleep which is a huge bonus.
i used to get that same sick feeling from green tea especially on an empty stomach - it’s the tannins that do it. if you want a supplement that actually works for heart rate try taurine. a lot of guys use it to help with pumps but it's actually really good for keeping your rhythm steady and calming the nervous system down.
look into ashwagandha if you haven't yet. it’s a total game changer for cortisol and stress levels. i started taking it a few months ago and i dont get those random "heart pounding" moments nearly as much as i used to. just make sure you get a high quality one like ksm-66 or it won't do much.
