HI low hemoglobin results from decrease intake of foods containing iron(green leaf vegetables,carrot, fruits, dates etc) or due to loss of blood or eating pica(sand,paint etc). This results in decreased oxygen to all body parts-heart resulting in increased heart rate.Hope this answers your query and ready to help you further.
