What does optimizing your health actually cost, and what’s worth the money? We put our real numbers on the table in this yap sesh. On this episode of Down to Health, we break down: -Why TJ threw out $1,500 of peptides -What we spend every month on gyms, groceries, and supplements -What we’re trying to sleep better, from a vagus nerve stimulator to a pre-bed stack -Why everyone falls off the wagon, and how to get back on -Why we’re headed to the Eudēmonia Summit Hosted by @theNOBSdentist, @CalvinandNOBS, and @TJ_Bongiorno. Brought to you by: • NOBS: nobsroutines.com/ • The Outgoing Co.: theoutgoing.co/ Follow @dthshow for more!

How do you decide what’s actually worth your time? We ask three questions: is it going to kill you, is it very important to you, and can you afford it? Everything else can wait its turn. Full episode here or on YouTube: DTHshow

Are you going to be in West Palm Beach this November? We’ll be at the Eudēmonia Summit (@EudemoniaSummit) with a NOBS and Down To Health booth, an oral health panel, and a few episodes to film. If you’re in the space and want to make content, hit us up. Eudēmonia Summit: eudemonia.net Full episode here or on YouTube: DTHshow

What happens to your health routine when life gets busy? Calvin is on track for 100 flights this year and says he’s fallen off the bandwagon. No gym, no cardio, and no hyperbaric oxygen therapy for a month and a half, all while running a company. Full episode here or on YouTube: DTHshow

Would you keep using a gadget after a night like that? Ilon tried a vagus nerve stimulator for two nights. Night one came with every nightmare stereotype he could imagine. Night two was different. He’s calling it a possible fluke, so stay tuned. Full episode here or on YouTube: DTHshow

Do you actually know what’s in your fridge, or are you just hoping for the best? TJ cleaned out his peptide fridge and threw away about $1,500 worth. Unlabeled bottles got the boot because “that was dumb,” and so did anything from overseas sources he couldn’t fully trust. Full episode here or on YouTube: DTHshow

We’re getting honest about what we’re taking, what’s working, and how much money we’re lighting on fire. TJ threw out $1,500 worth of peptides, Ilon thinks his vagus nerve stimulator’s wild first night might be a good sign, and we all pull out the receipts on our monthly health spend.

What does Marc Malone wish he had done sooner for his wife? He reflects on a second approach he designed at the end of her time in hospice, and why he believes it was the one that could have made a difference if he had started earlier. He walks through how it targets cancer stem cell pathways. Full episode here or on YouTube: DTHshow Guest: @Iammarcmalone

What would you do if your wife received a devastating diagnosis? Marc Malone shares how his story began. After five years of marriage, his wife was diagnosed with metastatic triple negative breast cancer in early 2023, and he took it upon himself to try to help save her.

Why can’t a new idea in medicine just be shared right away? Marc Malone explains why he says he can’t share his own formula with other people without going through a formal pathway, and what submitting an expanded access program form to the FDA involves.

How do you get a doctor and a pharmacist on board with a different approach? Marc Malone explains how he walked his wife’s doctor through the details, and why he says both the doctor and the pharmacist were comfortable moving forward. He also gets into what the process looked like and whether it required a custom formulation. Full episode here or on YouTube: DTHshow Guest: @Iammarcmalone

Why is triple negative breast cancer called a gene silencing condition? Marc Malone walks through three areas he focused on after a diagnosis: how cancer cells use glucose and glutamine as fuel, the signaling pathways inside the cell, and why triple negative breast cancer is described clinically as a multi gene silencing disorder.

When his wife was diagnosed with cancer, Marc Malone, @Iammarcmalone, wasn’t a scientist. He says he went on to switch her silenced genes back on. He walks through how he mapped her cancer on a whiteboard, what he says happened three weeks in, and why he’s now building the same approach for his son. Full episode here or on YouTube: DTHshow

When his wife was diagnosed with one of the most aggressive cancers there is, Marc Malone had no medical training and almost no time. @Iammarcmalone joins Down to Health to break down: -How he mapped his wife’s cancer and designed his own interventions from scratch -Why he calls triple negative breast cancer a gene silencing disease -What worked, what didn’t, and why the first approach couldn’t be sustained -Why getting this to other patients runs through expanded access and right-to-try laws Hosted by @theNOBSdentist, @CalvinandNOBS, and @TJ_Bongiorno.

Everyone has a different mold threshold. Two people can share the same room, and one gets very sick while the other doesn’t. Dr. Scott McMahon from MoldCo explains that genetics play a role, with about 24% of the population carrying the predisposition. Full episode here or on YouTube: DTHshow Guest: @themoldcompany

New builds can have mold too. Materials left out in the rain can get built right into a home before anyone moves in. Quick visual inspections often miss what’s behind the walls, in the crawlspace, or in the HVAC system. Full episode here or on YouTube: DTHshow Guest: @m0ldilocks @themoldcompany

Proper mold remediation starts with finding and correcting the water intrusion. Then the wet paper containing materials like sheetrock and insulation get removed, followed by testing, rebuilding, small particle cleaning, and dust testing weeks later.

Does mold die when it dries out? Not exactly. Without food or water, mold creates spores that can last over 50 years, like a bear in hibernation. Once water returns, it multiplies by a factor of thousands. Full episode here or on YouTube: DTHshow Guest: @themoldcompany

Humidity above 60% is typically the alarm bell for a possible water damage problem at home. Other signs to look for: peeling paint, warped flooring, discoloration, musty odors, and visible mold. The crawl space, bathroom, kitchen, and the first 1 to 2 feet above the floor are the higher risk areas. Full episode here or on YouTube: DTHshow Guest: @m0ldilocks @themoldcompany
