Be aware of the following rules before posting comments:
- Please do not post summaries of the video in the comments - it damages retention on the video and YouTube is less likely to promote it (these videos cost me a lot of money to produce).

Critiques of my work are welcome! Please be aware of the following notes & rules before submitting critique:

Be mindful that this content is not all encompassing on the subject at hand and is self-limited for brevity to reach a wider audience. Also, be aware that I receive hundreds of YouTube comments per day, so the only way your critique can be considered is if you follow the steps outlined below. Finally, YouTube auto-deletes links, so I do not see most comments with links attached.

RULES:
If your comment is rude, you will be banned.
If your comment is not about the studies/topics at hand (i.e. extending to other outcomes not discussed) or offers critique with no scientific basis, it is unlikely to receive a response.

If you can follow these rules, I will try to address your critique and if there is merit, I will add an AMENDMENT to the content in question and pin it so everyone can see it (thank you!).

Mindsip insights from this episode:

Maintain optimal blood pressure for better health

The speaker's personal philosophy is that your blood pressure should be as low as possible while still allowing you to function normally without side effects.

Reevaluate ideal blood pressure: Aim for lower than 120/80

The speaker speculates that the ideal blood pressure might be even lower than the current 120/80 recommendation, perhaps as low as 100/60.

Lower systolic blood pressure to 120 to reduce cardiovascular events

A landmark study found that intensively lowering systolic blood pressure to 120, rather than the old standard of 140, reduced major cardiovascular events by about 25%.

Lower blood pressure without kidney-affecting medications

It may be preferable to lower blood pressure without using medications that affect the kidneys, especially when compounding multiple different drugs.

Beware blood pressure drugs that may harm kidneys

The kidney damage may be caused by specific drugs like diuretics or ACE inhibitors, or simply by reduced blood flow to the kidneys from very low pressure.

Beware kidney risks from intensive blood pressure treatment

The same study showed that intensive drug treatment to lower blood pressure also led to an approximately 70% increased risk of acute kidney injury.
