Animal-based retinol shouldn't cause your heart rate to increase - retinol is basically Vitamin A and to the best of my knowledge has no effect on heart rate. However, vitamins and minerals in the United States are regulated as "dietary supplements" rather than medications - there is very little oversight as far as concentration of ingredients, what ingredients are included, the cleanliness and segregation of production to prevent cross-contamination, efficacy, etc. I is possible there are other ingredients in the vitamins that may impact heart rate, or there may have been a bad batch that was cross-contaminated with something that could impact heart rate. If the vitamins are the only new thing and you are having a reaction to them, your best option is to stop taking the vitamins. The latest medical research shows that only people with known deficiencies, or certain groups of people that are high-risk for certain deficiences, derive any benefit from vitamin supplements. Also, there are risks associated with vitamins, including vitamin toxicosis which can be fatal depending upon the severity and the specific vitamin.
Although some people believe honey is fattening a recent article states that: "It is true that honey is a type of sugar. However, while the dietary sugars have only carbohydrates, honey, a natural sweetener, has vitamins and minerals as well. When our body digests sugar, it uses the vitamins and minerals present in our tissues. Hence, in the process of digesting dietary sugar, a deficit of vitamins and minerals is created in our body. This deficit is not created when honey is digested, as besides being a rich source carbohydrates, honey also provides important vitamins and minerals to the body. Hence, the metabolism of fats and cholesterol remains unhindered when dietary sugars are replaced with honey." therefore eating honey in small amounts daily theoreticly should help you. Hope this is more helpful that the previous answer! :D
