What if your blood pressure isn’t the problem — but the message? In this episode of The Heal Deal Podcast, Dr. Leona Allen breaks down the truth behind the new 2025 blood pressure guidelines and exposes why so many people are being pushed toward medication earlier… even when their body isn’t the issue.
