 Hypertension: What You Don't Know Can KILL You! dives deep into one of the most underestimated threats to women over 50: high blood pressure. In this eye-opening episode of Crazy Good Ageing, hosts Dorthy and Valerie welcome Dr. Sharon Nesbitt — Medical Director of the Parkland Hypertension Clinic and leading voice in cardiovascular health and health equity — to unravel the silent yet deadly nature of hypertension. With personal anecdotes, myth-busting facts, and relatable humor, the episode underscores how hormonal changes post-menopause, increased vascular stiffness, and lifestyle shifts make women especially vulnerable to heart disease, even when they feel perfectly fine. But it's not all doom and gloom — Dr. Nesbitt brings a message of empowerment. She shares practical, life-affirming strategies to lower blood pressure without sacrificing joy, from adopting Mediterranean-style meals to stress management techniques that don’t involve giving up your favorite wine. The conversation also addresses the disproportionate impact of hypertension on women of color and the urgent need for medical self-advocacy. With rapid-fire myth debunking and a light-hearted finish featuring Dr. Nesbitt’s personal “Prime Picks,” this episode delivers both critical health advice and a vibrant call to live boldly, stay informed, and keep laughing.
