********CRITIQUES, RULES, AND NOTES********

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:

Limit potassium intake to protect kidney health

People with kidney disease should be cautious with potassium consumption, as their kidneys may not be able to properly regulate and excrete it.

#kidney

#potassium

Incorporate salmon as a potassium-rich food source

In addition to well-known plant sources like bananas and avocados, salmon is a surprisingly good source of potassium.

#nutrition

#potassium

Increase potassium intake to lower stroke risk by 24%

Compared to low potassium levels, adequate potassium intake is associated with a substantial 24% reduced risk of stroke.

#potassium

#stroke

Utilize potassium to prevent hemorrhagic strokes

Potassium is likely more effective at preventing hemorrhagic strokes, which are brain bleeds caused by high blood pressure, than other types of stroke.

#potassium

#stroke

Increase potassium intake to lower high blood pressure

Potassium intake significantly lowers blood pressure in people who already have hypertension, but has little to no effect on those with normal blood pressure.

#blood-pressure

#potassium

Increase potassium intake to combat modern dietary deficiencies

Potassium intake in modern diets is generally lower than it was in the past, highlighting a potential widespread deficiency.

#deficiency

#potassium

Lower blood pressure by increasing potassium intake

Potassium activates hormones that signal your kidneys to reduce the reabsorption of sodium, causing more sodium to be excreted and thereby lowering blood pressure.
