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:

  • What ketones are and why they're different from carbs, fats, and protein
  • Why ketone energy is "cleaner" for your body (less aging at the cellular level)
  • How exogenous ketones (supplements you drink) give your brain and nervous system premium fuel
  • The study showing ketones improve sleep quality and REM sleep specifically
  • Why the 3am wake-up happens and how ketones prevent it
  • Don's personal HRV data: What he measured, how it changed, and what it means
  • The three types of ketone supplements and why most aren't worth your money
  • Who should actually consider trying this (hint: athletes, poor sleepers, stressed professionals)
  • Real talk: When ketones help and when they won't solve your problem

This episode is for you if:

  • You track sleep or recovery and want to optimize it
  • You're tired of waking up groggy despite sleeping enough
  • You're curious about biohacking but want the practical truth, not hype
  • You've heard about ketones but had no idea what they actually do
  • You want to understand how your nervous system recovery works


Klaudia Balogh and Don Moxley dive into the science with real data, real protocols, and honest discussion about what actually works versus what's just trendy.
