The "Silent Killer" Affecting 1 in 2 Adults Globally (& How To Track It *From Your Wrist*!), With Dr. Jay Shah.

Apr 10, 2025
Episode description
Hypertension isn’t a snapshot—it’s a movie, and most of us are missing the plot.
Technology can outpace tradition when it’s patient-first, not doctor-first.
This conversation will break new ground by flipping the hypertension narrative from a dry medical topic to a human behavior puzzle—cracking why we ignore what kills us and how tech can jolt us awake. Unlike other podcasts where Dr. Shah might recite Hilo’s specs or his CV, here he’ll wrestle with the messy realities of healthcare inertia, his own career gamble, and the psychology of change. The fresh angles—his pivot story, the unseen patient barriers, the next wearable frontier—will spark revelations Jay hasn’t unpacked elsewhere.
