    If I can just hit "like" a billion times, I would. Thank you Dr. Mike for putting logic into this. This helps so much in understanding, not just memorizing.

    Absolutely fascinating. This should be taught in school beginning with preschool. The human body and how it works. Seems like this would be the most important thing taught in school since we all have a body. So many people only learn about their body when disease or illness enter into their lives.

    No what should be taught in school is how to avoid ending up on these medications and others and instead focus on its causes. Diet!! Stop Eating carbohydrates and seed based oils. This is what is leading to our greatest health problem on the planet. Hyperinsulinemia. We must all eat a keto and better still a carnivore diet.

    Dear Dr Mike! I am a big follower of yours and appreciate your educative videos. I noticed a mistake which would be nice if corrected: you said that non-dihydropyridines are for blood vessel dilation. Which surprised me as of my knowledge non-dihydropyridine works more on heart tissue and the the dihydropyridines works on blood vessels. Thank you

    Hi Dr Mike and Matt, I love your videos and find them extremely useful and motivating as they're motivating, well--explained and crisp. I must point out that at 20:51, I believe you got the dihydropyridenes and the non-dihydropyridenes mixed up, I just found that out while going through my class lecture slides and corrected my notes. Seems, dihydropyridenes work on vasculature not the other way round. Non-dihydropyridenes like Verapamil work on the heart. Thank you for making these amazing and easy-to-learn videos 💚

    Hi Dr Mike, great video thank you. Am I right in thinking that with the CCBs it is the other way around and dihydropyridine act more on smooth muscle, and non-dihydropyridine act more prominently at the heart, hence their rate limiting nature? Thanks!

    The good, your educational presentation is second to none, just wish I had heard your lectures when I learned medicine in the 60-70’ would have been so much easier to comprehend and remember. The bad, & I apologise in advance because you have been specific in requesting you only receive compliments and no brickbats. However as good scientists you will be well aware of considering all sides of an idea/argument. You, in my humble opinion are not amusing & the attempts at humour detract rather than add to your presentations. Stick to the medical science you are great, leave the laughs to the stand ups. Keep up the good work !

    Jeff, I said clearly that I didn’t want to indulge in a debate & I won’t, so this is my last word on the subject to you or anyone else. I gave a point of view which reflects my opinion. Any response worth considering from an intelligent & reasonable person would have dealt with the reason they find these guys amusing, or not. So Jeff if you want to resort to insults then it falls way below what I consider conducive to discussion & lends noting to the debate, all heat and no illumination !

    So taking a combined Sartan/Diuretics will throw out all salt you need for regulation of blood pressure and the symptoms will normalize but the problem stays invisible?

    Why would a cardiologist prescribe blood pressure medicine when for over 15 years my BP has been around 176/77, don't they look at the patient's file? When he prescribed BP Meds, my BP went down to 90/30! Was he trying to kill me!
