hi sir/madam,
Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.

The problem you are facing is called Bradycardia.

Causes for Bradycardia:-

1. Coronary heart disease
2. Smoking.
3. Diabetes
4. Over-weight
5. High blood pressure..etc

Lifestyle Management:-

1. Eat healthy meals at regular intervals with less content of sweets in them.
2. People with faster metabolic rate should eat protein rich food as it takes longer to digest and prevents blood sugar level from falling down, which in turn helps prevent arrhythmia.
3. Get your allergy test done or try to find out for yourself the culprit of those infrequent palpitations. Foods like Soya sauce have been found to create such effects in certain people.
4. Magnesium is known to kick out calcium from the cells which in turn is known to stimulate muscular contractions within the cell. Magnesium therefore creates rhythmic contraction and relaxation and should be a vital constituent of your diet. It is easily found in soybeans, beans, nuts, bran and green vegetables.
5. Avoid stimulants like tea, coffee, cola, chocolate etc.

Home remedies:-

1. Grape juice :–
Grape juice has been found to be quite effective in regularizing heart beat. Small quantity of grape juice at regular intervals in a day should prove beneficial although care should be taken in case your digestive system is sensitive to grapes, in which case it should be avoided.

2. Snake guard :–
Two tablespoon juice of snake guard leaves three times in a day is also known to regulate heart beat.

3. Guava :–
Another easy remedy is eating a raw guava on an empty stomach daily. This calms the nervous system as also counters the effect of anemia which in turn results in constipation and flatulence, both of which raise the heart beat.

4. Cardamom :–
Boil ¼ teaspoon of crushed / powdered cardamom seeds in a cup of water with small quantity of tea and drink.

5. Honey :–
A tablespoon of honey with a tablespoon of lemon juice in a glass of water at bed time has also seen to do wonders in case of this problem. Honey is also very light for heart and is easily digested too.

Ayurvedic medicines to be used:-

1. Ashwagandharista- 10 to 30 ml with equal quantity of water.
2. Bhrami vati- 1-0-1 with water after food.
3. Sankhapushpi Syrup- 1tsp daily.
4. Arjuna Capsule- 1-0-1 with water after food.

Take these medicines and follow the diet as i mentioned.
Hope i was helpful.
