Understanding Blood Pressure with Janna McCourt
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.
