Does anxiety increase heart rate after meals?

Anxiety

disorder is a common psychological disorder in which people may feel anxious about eating and food choices, which may lead to an increased heart rate. It is a stress response in the body. After eating, the body needs to allocate a large amount of blood to the digestive system to digest food. If the patient is still anxious, it may lead to an increased stress response in the body, allowing more blood to flow to the heart and muscles, causing the heart rate to increase further. However, heart rate acceleration after meals is not all anxiety patients will appear, nor are they all related to anxiety, but also should pay attention to exclude other possible factors.
