HeatherPK Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 It's interesting to see what's been going on with my resting heart rate since I've started the Whole30. The only thing I've changed is my diet. I'm on Day 11. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kirbz Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 Wow, that's really cool! Now I wanna check mine! LOL. Just did... No change. :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Honeycrisp Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 I'm going to do my first W30 next week.. but I went off refined sugars (started on candida diet, then keto) a few months ago. I have had the same awesome side effect! My resting heart rate was usually well above 85... after a meal, it could race 120bpm for a few hours! Also had skips and palpitations. Since reducing nonsense carbs and adding plenty of healthy fats, my resting rate is now around 60-70 bpm. This was enough for me to adopt a healthy food lifestyle... forever! Weight loss is still a work in progress... but my heart, is thanking me <3 Well done & congratulations! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kirbz Posted October 9, 2017 Share Posted October 9, 2017 So, I started Whole30 on September 16 and my resting heart rate has decreased from 68 BPM to 54 BPM. It took a week or two to see it start to go down but it definitely has! Kinda cool!! Particularly since I don't have my Tiger Blood yet and I'm on Day 24...

tcarson Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 Mine too! Mine was around 60 in December, and now it's hanging out around 50. Glad I'm not the only one. And no cardio at all, I'm only doing strength training this month! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robin in Iowa Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 What is ideal? I didn't expect to see it low in the low 50s. I am also tired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am also tired. Normal is usually 60-100, but can be lower for people who are in good shape. If you want more feedback on why you might be feeling tired, tell us more about what you're doing -- what day of whole30 are you on, what does a day or two of typical meals look like, are you exercising, how much are you sleeping each night? The first week or so of whole30, it is not unusual to be a little more tired than usual. Other things that can contribute to tiredness include not eating enough or not eating the right mix of foods -- for instance, not adding fat to each meal, or inadvertently going too low carb (try having at least one fist-sized serving of starchy vegetable each day if you're not already); not salting your food; not drinking enough water; or non-food stuff like not sleeping enough or being under a lot of stress.
