Answered by Secondmedic Expert

Yes, it is normal to have heart palpitations every day. Heart palpitations are a common symptom for many people and can be triggered by numerous different things such as stress, lack of sleep, caffeine consumption, or certain medications. It is important to differentiate between benign heart palpitations and those due to an underlying medical condition which should be evaluated further.

Benign heart palpitations can often be avoided by making lifestyle changes such as getting adequate amounts of restful sleep each night, managing stress through exercise or yoga and proper nutrition, limiting caffeine intake, avoiding excessive stimulation like too much sugar or alcohol consumption and staying away from smoking or illicit drugs. Other techniques like biofeedback may also help if you find your palpitations occur during times of heightened anxiety. While preventing them altogether isn't always possible they can often be reduced with the right approach to health and lifestyle management.
