ZOE Science & Nutrition · 4 lifestyle changes that lower high blood pressure | Dr Sanjay Gupta · 29 Jan 2026 podcast

And where is most salt in our diet today?

And you talked earlier about this new study showing like these particular microbes linked to high blood pressure or not.

Is it possible to get more of the good ones and fewer of the bad ones through my diet?

We've covered a lot of the different things you could do.

I'd just like to talk about exercise a little bit more.

Is there evidence that doing more exercise can reduce my blood pressure?

So it's interesting what you just said.

So you're saying all of these things, if they also help you to reduce your weight, then you're going to reduce your blood pressure because this extra weight is pushing up your blood pressure.

If our listeners started making these sorts of changes that you're talking about, how fast could they expect to see it have an impact on their blood pressure?

And how big an impact can that be versus taking the pill that otherwise you're offering to them?

Amazing.

Thank you so much.

This was definitely, it was a new topic for me, quite complicated to understand.

I'm going to try and summarize it.

And please correct me if I've got anything wrong, both of you.

I feel like I'm about to do an exam.

So the thing that I'm actually most amazed by is this new discovery that there are specific bugs in our gut linked to high blood pressure and low blood pressure, which is extraordinary.

We don't fully understand why, but we think it might be linked to this long-term inflammation.

About a quarter of people are told by their doctor they have high blood pressure, but they don't because when you go in and see your doctor, you're really anxious and your heart rate goes up.

And so you have this measurement that is higher than your average would be.
