“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.

Michael Sherer, health researcher and author, specializes in translating cutting-edge science into actionable health information. His Redox Health Series promotes healthy aging and disease reversal using principles from stress theory, redox biology, genomics, epigenomics, and exposome theory. Sherer is a member of the Society for Redox Biology and Medicine and the American Society for Nutrition.

The Redox Health Series has grown to four books:

Book 1: One Disease: Redox Imbalance. How stress becomes disease

Book 2: Resilience! The Key to Lifelong Health. A 10-step program for boosting mental and physical resilience.

Book 3: My AI Diabetes Coach. How AI and continuous glucose monitoring helped me become 'undiabetic' in 11 days

Book 4: Recipes for Resilient Eating. A father-daughter collaboration (Coming in fall 202)

Throughout the series, his passion for health, nutrition, technology, and cutting-edge research are on full display. The resulting books present the latest research in an accessible, readable—even enjoyable way.

His overarching mission is to leverage the principles of redox health to help people live longer, healthier lives, while promoting more effective, lower-cost healthcare models for the societies they live in.

5.0 out of 5 stars What’s the deal about redox?!?
Reviewed in the United States on June 1, 2021

This little book gives meaning to all the current buzz words: redox, antioxidants, root cause, stress, etc. It’s loaded with practical knowledge that can empower us to gain resilience and prevent disease. The author has done the research for us on reduction and oxidation, (redox) from its first mention about 20 years ago to the present. He mentions a whopping 250,000 articles on PubMed alone that refer to oxidation and redox! He quotes, “…redox imbalance is an insufficient but necessary cause in all disease. By extension, redox imbalance is a disease.” And, “Life is nothing but an electron looking for a place to rest,” Nobel prize-winning Hungarian biochemist, Albert Szent-Györgyi.

One astounding, little thing that I can do for myself is check my NLR. “NLR is a biomarker of immune system activation/dysregulation”. He explains what the ratio of neutrophils to lymphocytes means.

Chapter 7 is about "redox self-care and prevention through resilience". If I take the listed 12 resilience habits seriously, I WILL be healthier. I'll have more life and energy. First on his list is sleep, the “non-negotiable”. This positive habit needs to be my first goal. The book does a good job explaining its importance to mind and body.

Chapter 8 leads us into treating our redox imbalances. I’m going to periodically re-read these two chapters as a reminder to where my focus needs to be. For me, if I can understand the “why” it helps to do the “how”. At my age I want to look better and I need to feel better. This book is written in an easy manner and geared to kindly motivate me. Definitely a keeper! Many thanks to the author.

Anyone serious about understanding the disease process and how to take control of it will profit from this book. Of particular interest is the section that helps you formulate the questions that you may want to ask your doctor. I cannot encourage you enough to read this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars A singular root cause of disease ?
Reviewed in the United States on June 2, 2021
Verified Purchase
Mike has written a fascinating book about a not-so novel concept, oxidative stress, that has apparently been "hiding in plain sight" in more than 250,000 articles in PubMed for at least 20 years. Mike is clear throughout the book that he is not a scientist but has been reading the research for years and is putting it out there for readers to discern. The research is substantial though, as has been Mike's study of it and citation throughout the book, and while there is plenty of chemistry and molecular biology in the chapters, he has made it very readable by repeating the main concepts as well as providing some helpful analogies and examples. His 400 word synopsis is helpful for those only interested in a summary, yet will intrigue the reader to want to learn more. His list of "Big" questions and considerations if the dominant paradigm for western medicine were to embrace these concepts is provocative and gives the reader a glimpse of what health and healthcare could look like in the future.. particularly in the area of screenings that may be possible for early detection and treatment of this singular root cause of disease- redox imbalance, as Mike posits from the research. The sections on how one can build resilience to oxidative stress are detailed and helpful and I appreciated his emphasis on nutrition and exercise among other things. This will be a book I will return to again as there was SO much information to retain on the first pass. Mike's presentation of the research represents a novel approach to understanding and treating disease and deserves thoughtful consideration for clinical practice.. beyond functional medicine.

In his book, Michael refers to precision medicine. I have come to know this as Functional, Integrative and Holistic Medicine. Functional Medicine doctors do just what he has written about. We spent a few months analyzing all my body fluids to find that my adrenal glands were functioning properly again. That my thyroid is still unstable. That I am fighting detrimental fungi and have DNA variants that make me prone to Cardiac and Mitochondrial problems. The DNA report suggests several natural things that can help me avoid the heart problems that have plagued my family.

He writes, "“Collectively, we have created an anti-health culture and a medical-industrial complex designed to monitor you as your high-stress, low-nutrient, high-toxicity lifestyle degrades your health and quality of life. Then that self-same system manages your chronic diseases as you acquire them, often from the prescribed medications’ side effects.” I never thought I would see these words written in a book about health care in the 20th - 21st century. You have written down my thoughts about conventional medicine as it stands today. Thank you Michael.
