Listen Later

What if your blood pressure isn’t the problem — but the message?

In this episode of The Heal Deal Podcast, Dr. Leona Allen breaks down the truth behind the new 2025 blood pressure guidelines and exposes why so many people are being pushed toward medication earlier… even when their body isn’t the issue.

You’ll learn how these guidelines changed, why the thresholds keep tightening, and why the real danger isn’t your blood pressure — it’s the metabolic dysfunction underneath it.

If you’ve ever felt confused, stressed, or powerless after a doctor’s appointment, this episode will give you clarity and confidence. This is your roadmap to understanding your numbers, advocating for yourself, and addressing the root causes driving your blood pressure in the first place.

✅ Why millions are now considered hypertensive without true personalization
✅ How insulin resistance, inflammation, stress, and sleep play a bigger role than salt
✅ Why one office reading should never define your health
