You’ve been told high blood pressure is the cause of your kidney issues, your fatigue, or even your declining health. But what if that’s not the full story?

In this episode, we’re turning that idea on its head.

Join me as we unpack the real root cause behind elevated blood pressure—and why blindly medicating the number may be missing the point entirely. We’ll talk about how blood pressure guidelines have shifted over time, why “lower” isn’t always better (especially as we age), and the deeper inflammatory and lifestyle patterns that might be driving your symptoms.

You’ll also learn:

The invisible root causes of high blood pressure most doctors overlook

What the research says about over-lowering BP in older adults

How to begin advocating for root-cause healing—not just symptom suppression

Whether you’re dealing with kidney disease, heart concerns, or just want to take a more informed, faith-led approach to your health, this episode will equip and encourage you.
