The REAL BP Target: Cut Dementia Risk By 15% (Doctors Got It Wrong!)

In today's episode we're diving into new human studies showing an easy, aggressive way to slash dementia risk by 15% over a four-year period. We unpack recent groundbreaking research demonstrating why the older blood pressure target of 140/90 is risky.

Studies like SPRINT and its sequel show that most people should aim for a systolic blood pressure of less than 120 to optimally protect both heart and brain health.

Learn the five key strategies you can take today, including lowering salt intake, following the DASH diet, incorporating exercise snacks, and managing weight, to reach a healthy blood pressure without always relying on medication.
