Brain health is having a moment, and not by accident.Post-COVID burnout, rising dementia rates, mental health struggles, and chronic brain fog have pushed cognitive health to the center of the longevity conversation. But most people still don’t know what works.In this 1-year anniversary episode of the 90% Healthy Podcast, we sit down with Dr. Tommy Wood, neuroscientist, performance consultant, and author of The Stimulated Mind, to break down what really protects and improves your brain across the lifespan.In this episode, we cover:Why brain health suddenly feels urgentThe real drivers of cognitive decline (and what’s preventable)The 3S Framework: Stimulus, Supply, and SupportWhy movement, learning, and novelty matter more than supplementsHow sleep, blood flow, and metabolic health shape cognitionThe surprising link between sedentary time and dementia riskWhat helps after concussions or brain injuryWhy small, consistent lifestyle choices beat “quick fixes”This episode is a playbook for people who want to stay sharp today and protect their minds for decades to come.Guest: Tommy Wood - https://www.drtommywood.com/Book: The Stimulated Mind = https://www.drtommywood.com/stimulated-mindTommy's podcast: https://www.drtommywood.com/podcastHosts: Klaudia Balogh - https://longevityjournalist.com/Don Moxley: http://trainrecoverwin.com/🎧 Subscribe for more conversations on longevity, resilience, and real health.
Peptides are suddenly everywhere, from GLP-1 weight-loss drugs to recovery stacks, skincare, and “research-grade” compounds sold online.But what are peptides really?Which ones are proven?Which ones are dangerous?And why is the industry being called the Wild West right now?In this episode of the 90% Healthy Podcast, we sit down with Dr. Melissa Petersen, clinician, longevity strategist, and founder of Peptide University, to cut through the confusion.We cover:What peptides actually are (and why your body already makes thousands of them)Why GLP-1 drugs are peptides — and why dosing matters more than people realizeThe difference between FDA-approved, compounding pharmacy, and “research-grade” peptidesWhy bro science and influencer stacks are putting people at riskWhat the FDA crackdown really means for consumersHow to think about peptides as signals, not shortcutWhy peptides can enhance health, but never replace movement, sleep, nutrition, or even purpose🎧 Listen now and share this with someone who’s peptide-curious but confused.This episode is for anyone curious about peptides but unwilling to gamble with their health.Guest: Dr. Melissa Petersen | https://mypeptideuniversity.com/Hosts: Don Moxley | https://trainrecoverwin.com/Klaudia Balogh | http://longevityjournalist.com/
Most people think light therapy is about buying the brightest panel or sitting in a sauna longer.This conversation changes that.In this episode of the 90% Healthy Podcast, Don Moxley sits down with Robbie Bresser, co-founder and Chief Science Officer of TheraSage, to unpack why how light is delivered matters more than how much, and why many people unknowingly misuse light therapy.What started as a father’s search for healing when his daughter was diagnosed with Lyme disease turned into a deep exploration of infrared biology, photobiomodulation, mitochondrial health, nervous system regulation, and recovery.Together, they explore:Why light therapy should be treated as biological signalingThe real difference between infrared, near-infrared, and red lightWhy more light isn’t always better and when it can backfireHow combining light, PEMF, and microcurrent changes recovery outcomesWhat most devices get wrong about proximity, dosing, and EMF exposureHow athletes, high performers, and burned-out professionals can use light therapy more intelligently🎧 Listen to learn more about recovery, longevity, nervous system health, and using technology in alignment with biologyHost: Don Moxley | http://trainrecoverwin.comGuest: Robby Besner | http://therasage.com/Special for 90% Healthy listeners: 20% off with code: "90%Healthy"Who's the 90% Healthy Podcast for?It’s for you who wants to build a resilient body without losing your mind.

Most people don’t need to “optimize” their sleep — they need to understand it.In this episode of the 90% Healthy Podcast, sleep scientist Dr. Dan Gartenberg (PhD, founder of SleepSpace) breaks down why so many disciplined, high-performing people still wake up tired, and why copying sleep hacks from friends, influencers, or wearables often backfires.We cover:Why sleep advice should never be one-size-fits-allThe biggest mistakes people make with sleep trackingHow wearables help — and when they hurtWhy waking up groggy isn’t about willpowerThe science of sleep stages, smart alarms, and sleep inertiaHow light, sound, timing, and breathing shape sleep qualityWhen insomnia, sleep apnea, or anxiety is the real root causeHow to improve sleep without turning it into an obsessionDr. Dan has published 20+ peer-reviewed studies on sleep and cognition and has been featured in NPR, The New York Times, and TEDx.

You know what to do.You’ve tried discipline, consistency, and self-control.So why does it still feel so hard?In this episode of the 90% Healthy Podcast, we speak with Jose Maresma, a nervous system–informed performance and wellbeing coach who works with physicians, first responders, elite athletes, and high achievers living under constant pressure.Jose doesn’t teach motivation.He teaches regulation.This conversation explores why so many disciplined people feel stuck, burned out, or dysregulated — and how nervous system safety, embodiment, and meaning are often the missing link.We discuss:Why trauma and chronic stress override disciplineHow nervous system dysregulation blocks progressWhy consistency only works when the body feels safeThe difference between pushing harder and regulating smarterHow high performers build resilience without burning outThis episode is for people who are capable, driven, and committed — but exhausted from trying to force change.🎙️ Guest: Jose Maresma🧠 Nervous System–Informed Performance & Wellbeing Coach🔗 Learn more: embodiedspirittherapies.com (linked in show notes)🎙️ Hosts: Klaudia Balogh (longevityjournalist.com) & Don Moxley (trainrecoverwin.com)Who's the 90% Healthy Podcast for?It’s for you who wants to build a resilient body without losing your mind.

This week on the 90% Healthy Podcast, Klaudia Balogh and Don Moxley break down one of the biggest nutrition policy shifts in decades — the newly released U.S. Dietary Guidelines — and what they actually mean for real people.For the first time, the guidelines prioritize real food, protein, fiber, full-fat dairy, fermented foods, and sugar reduction, while clearly calling out the risks of ultra-processed diets. We unpack what changed, what didn’t, and where the public could still misinterpret the message.Then, we dive into new research tracking physical decline across nearly 50 years, revealing that measurable decline can begin as early as the mid-30s — but also showing what behaviors slow that process dramatically.Finally, we break down a third study exploring how exercise intensity influences immune cell behavior, highlighting why mixing moderate and higher-intensity movement may build long-term resilience without burning you out.This episode is about context, not extremes — and how to apply research without falling into fear, guilt, or optimization traps.In this episode, we cover:What the new dietary guidelines got right (and where caution is still needed)Why “eat real food” finally made it into policyProtein, fiber, dairy, and fermented foods — explained simplyWhen physical decline actually begins (and why it’s not destiny)Why muscle mass is your long-term insurance policyHow exercise strengthens immune resilience beyond aestheticsWhy health isn’t about perfection — it’s about consistency📌 Subscribe for weekly science-based conversations on health, longevity, and resilience.📤 Share this with someone confused by the new guidelines.Hosts:Don Moxley - www.trainrecoverwin.com | @trainrecoverwinKlaudia Balogh - www.longevityjournalist.com | @longevityjournalistWho's the 90% Healthy Podcast for?It’s for you who wants to build a resilient body without losing your mind.

New Year’s resolutions are a yearly ritual… and most people are back to square one by February.Let's not make that you!So we’re giving it a 90% Healthy twist: instead of chasing perfect goals, we’re giving you a 5-step toolkit that survives real life — travel, stress, chaos, low motivation, and “I’ll start Monday” energy.In this New Year’s Eve episode, Klaudia Balogh and Don Moxley break down how to STABILIZE BEFORE YOU OPTIMIZE, so you can :Tool #1: The Worst Week Test (if it won’t survive chaos, it’s not a plan)Tool #2: Make Actions the Goal (outcomes are cute — habits are durable)Tool #3: The 24-Hour Reset (no “Monday,” no spiral)Tool #4: Stop Letting Data Ruin Your Day (sleep score ≠ destiny)Tool #5: Seasonal Focus (one main focus per season, everything else = maintenance)Plus: why weight loss is a terrible goal, how to reward the process, and the line you need before January hits:Don’t optimize before you stabilize.If you’re tired of repeating the same resolution every year, this one is for you.📌 Subscribe for weekly conversations on health, performance, and practical longevity.📤 Send this to the friend who’s about to “restart Monday.”Connect with us on LinkedIn or reach out via Instagram:Klaudia: @longevityjournalistDon: @trainrecoverwin Who's the 90% Healthy Podcast for?It’s for you who wants to build a resilient body without losing your mind.

Before you jump into a drastic January reset, juice cleanse, or extreme diet, this episode is worth your time.In this holiday-week conversation on the 90% Healthy Podcast, Klaudia Balogh and Don Moxley break down two new studies that challenge how we think about sustainable health behaviors—without hype or dogma.Study one looks at long-term data showing that consistent, meaningful volunteering and helping behaviors are associated with better cognitive performance over time, including memory and executive function. The takeaway isn’t “do more,” but how purpose-driven engagement may support brain health as we age.Study two examines the 5-day Fasting Mimicking Diet (FMD) and its effects on insulin signaling, inflammation, ketone production, and autophagy—the body’s cellular cleanup process. We explain what this intervention actually does, who it may be appropriate for, and why short, structured resets often outperform extreme long-term plans.This episode is about thinking before reacting—especially in January.We cover:What the volunteering study actually measured (and what it didn’t)Helping vs burnout: where the benefits stopWhat the Fasting Mimicking Diet is — and what it’s notAutophagy, mTOR, and AMPK explained simplyWhy most January health plans fail by FebruaryHow to approach resets without guilt, obsession, or dogma🎧 Subscribe for weekly conversations grounded in science, context, and real life📤 Share this with someone planning an extreme January overhaul.
