You probably think you've tried everything to improve your sleep and nervous system recovery.
Better mattresses. Sleep supplements. More exercise. Meditation.
But there's ONE fuel source your body needs that almost nobody is using. And without it, you'll keep hitting a ceiling on your sleep quality and HRV improvements.
In this episode, we show you the missing piece. The fuel source that athletes, military special forces, and now Don Moxley are using to crack the code on sleep and nervous system resilience. And how you can access it without changing your diet or fasting.
What You'll Learn:

Red light therapy is more than a skin hack. In this evidence-led interview, neuroscientist Sarah Turner explains how specific wavelengths (esp. 850nm near-infrared) can structure cellular water, fuel mitochondria, and modulate the gut–brain axis—with implications for brain fog, mood, sleep, TBI recovery, and microbiome health. We also separate real photobiomodulation from expensive placebo panels.
What we investigate:
Structured water: Why light can turn intracellular water into a “battery” near hydrophilic surfaces
Mitochondria: How light targets cytochrome c oxidase to boost ATP (and when “more” backfires)
Gut–Brain axis: Using light on the gut to lower neuroinflammation via vagus nerve signaling
Microbiome: Early data showing light can normalize dysbiotic profiles (what’s real vs rodent-only)
Wavelengths that matter: 630/850/940/1070nm—penetration, heating, and when panels mislead
Dosing: Biphasic dose response, 10 minutes daily, why the brain requires low power
Safety & scams: Skin contact vs “glow shots,” reputable specs, and heat risks most ignore
Guest: Sarah Turner (CeraThrive) — pharmaceutical sciences → nutritional medicine → clinical neuroscience

What if you could be 85 and think like you’re 55?
This week on the 90% Healthy Podcast, Klaudia and Don dive into the fascinating science of SuperAgers — people in their 80s whose brains function decades younger.
We break down the 25-year Northwestern study on SuperAgers and explore:
Why resilience (not just optimization) is the key to aging well
How stress can strengthen the brain instead of breaking it
The role of mitochondria in keeping neurons firing like you’re younger
The overlooked importance of social fitness in longevity
SuperAgers don’t rely on fancy tech or hacks — they build resilience through simple, consistent habits that keep the mind, body, and spirit sharp.

What if the best biohack… is what you stop doing?In this episode, Klaudia and Don sit down with Sandy Martin, biohacker, wellness event producer, and author of Biohacking Starts with No. Sandy shares her powerful story of overcoming mold toxicity, challenging her doctor's advice, and learning that sometimes it's not about how big your supplement stack is or how many devices are in your drawer, but rather how the real biohack is saying no.This conversation with Sandy Martin completely redefined what “health optimization” looks like when everything else fails. She was told she had a traumatic brain injury. It was mold.Here’s what we get into:- Why the best biohack might be elimination, not addition
- How mold hijacked Sandy’s brain, and how she fought back
- Humming to raise your HRV (yes, humming)
- Why most people are stuck in sympathetic overdrive, and don’t even know it
- The problem of generalized solutions for individual problems

Ever feel like some workouts just aren’t your thing, no matter how hard you try? There’s science behind it.
In this episode, Don Moxley and Klaudia Balogh break down new research revealing how your personality type directly predicts the workouts you’ll enjoy most and stick with long-term.

Listen in for science-backed insights that’ll save you time, effort, and frustration.
If you're using GLP-1 medications like semaglutide or tirzepatide, but not sure how to eat while on them, this episode breaks it down.
We cover a new study published in Nature comparing a low-calorie diet vs. a low-carb, high-fat ketogenic diet in people taking tirzepatide. The results: one group lost more fat but kept more muscle. Spoiler: it wasn’t the low-calorie group.
We discuss:- Why protein and strength training are essential with GLP-1s
- How ketones play a role in fat loss and muscle retention
- Why these drugs should be a kickstart, not a shortcut
- We also dive into vagus nerve health, ketone monitoring, and the bigger picture of healthspan, not just weight loss.
