601: Biohacking on a Budget for Optimal Health with Tim Gray

What if most of the “healthy” foods and habits you rely on are actually making you sick, tired, and inflamed? So many people struggle with low energy, brain fog, poor sleep, and recurring health issues—and too often, the solutions we’re offered don’t address the root cause. And today’s guest knows all about what it’s like to be on a first-name basis with hospital staff that have no answers.

Tim Gray, who’s widely known as “Europe’s leading biohacker,” is a psychology specialist turned health entrepreneur who transformed and optimized his own health through biohacking. After years of chronic fatigue and mysterious illnesses that doctors and conventional medicine couldn’t solve, he dedicated himself to researching and experimenting with solutions. Today, he has over 600,000 Instagram followers, runs the popular Health Optimization Summit, and is recognized for bringing science-backed, accessible strategies to a global audience.

In our conversation, Tim shares several simple, yet effective ways to biohack and optimize your health that don’t require expensive tech or endless supplements. We talked about how to avoid the hidden dangers of seed oils and processed foods, why sleep is the most important biohack of all, and how practices like mouth taping dramatically improve your energy, focus, and vitality. 

Whether you’re just starting your health journey or already experimenting with biohacking, this episode will give you clear, practical steps to live longer, healthier and longer.
