Global Hypertension Crisis: Why 1.7 Billion People Are at Risk Inequality, Prevention & AI Solutions

The Lebanese Physicians' Podcast

About

In this episode of the Lebanese Physicians Podcast, I sit down with hypertension researcher Dr. Farah Allouch to discuss the growing global hypertension epidemic affecting over 1.7 billion people worldwide.


We explore the widening healthcare inequality gap between high- and low-income countries, barriers to treatment, prevention strategies, the role of AI and digital health, and why uncontrolled blood pressure is becoming a major driver of cardiovascular disease and dementia.


A must-watch conversation for clinicians, public health professionals, and anyone interested in the future of global healthcare.
