🩺 Description:
In this episode, we’re diving into one of the most common (and sneakiest) health conditions out there: hypertension, or high blood pressure. Whether you're managing it yourself or caring for a loved one who is, this episode breaks down everything you need to know in everyday language—no medical degree required.

We’ll cover:

  • What exactly hypertension is and why it’s often called “the silent killer”
  • Who’s most at risk (spoiler alert: age and ethnicity play a big role)
  • The long list of conditions it’s connected to—like heart disease, stroke, kidney failure, and more
  • How it’s tested, what those numbers mean, and when to take action
  • The difference between a high reading and a true emergency
  • Tips for managing blood pressure with diet, movement, medication, and support
  • What caregivers should know and how to help without nagging (we’ve all been there)

If you’ve ever wondered what those blood pressure readings really mean or how salt, stress, and age affect your heart health—this episode is for you. Tune in and walk away with knowledge that could literally save a life.

🎧 Listen now and learn how to take control of high blood pressure—one heartbeat at a time.
