  • Understanding Blood Pressure with Janna McCourt
    Oct 10 2023

    Janna McCourt joins co-hosts Joel and Nicole to discuss blood pressure. Janna emphasizes the importance of monitoring blood pressure for assessing general health, disease progression, and early detection of heart-related issues, such as hypertension.


    Blood pressure consists of systolic and diastolic pressure; the normal range is 120/80. High blood pressure, or hypertension, is often called the "silent killer" due to its lack of noticeable symptoms. Low blood pressure, or hypotension, can cause dizziness, fainting, confusion, and other issues. Janna advises avoiding excessive salt intake and processed foods and consuming fiber-rich foods to prevent constipation-related vagal nerve stimulation.


    They also discuss the role of the vagal nerve in blood pressure regulation and the importance of recognizing warning signs to prevent syncope and accidents. The hosts discuss the standard blood pressure reading of 120/80 and variations among individuals, emphasizing the significance of regular blood pressure monitoring.


    Jenna also addresses low blood pressure, its symptoms, and potential dangers, especially for seniors. The podcast also discusses the role of the vagal nerve in causing fainting. It offers tips to prevent low blood pressure, such as staying hydrated, avoiding constipation, and maintaining regular exercise.
