Blood Vessels, Part 2: Crash Course Anatomy & Physiology #28
And now we return to blood vessels. In this episode, we start discussing what blood pressure is, how it can become "high", and what that means for our health. One of the more interesting points is that your body has ways of dealing with high blood pressure, but they're not ways we want our bodies to operate on a full-time basis. And why can't we butter our bacon? WHY!?!?!
Pssst... we made flashcards to help you review the content in this episode! Find them on the free Crash Course App!
