One Disease: Redox Imbalance: How stress becomes disease (The Redox Health Series)

“Stress causes disease. Redox imbalance is why.” From that seven-word thesis, “One Disease: Redox Imbalance” builds the provocative case that stress-driven imbalance in the body’s oxidation/reduction (redox) systems, is central to the onset and progression of chronic diseases ranging from aging to cancer, heart disease, diabetes, mental illness and more. Author Michael Sherer has synthesized research drawn from over 250,000 articles on Pubmed, a repository of global medical research, to explain what redox imbalance is, why you and even your doctor are likely unaware of it, and to explore the role your body’s redox systems play in maintaining health, building resilience to future stress, and, when overtaxed or damaged, lead to symptoms and disease.

The science behind “One Disease: Redox Imbalance” is drawn from over three decades of research from the field of redox biology. In the 2015 publication of “The Redox Code,” researchers Helmut Sies and Dean Jones placed redox systems in the pivotal role of mediating the body’s adaptation to environmental change (stress). The implications of this assertion are far-reaching, namely, that malfunctioning of these redox systems was central to all disease. The publication of this book represents one of the first efforts to raise public awareness and understanding of this complex but important body of scientific research while providing practical applications that anyone can adopt and benefit from.
