What if the root cause of all chronic diseases could be traced back to a single factor? In his book Hidden Epidemic, Dr. Thomas Levy makes a compelling case that increased oxidative stress (IOS) is the common denominator of all disease—and that restoring electron flow is the key to healing.
Oxidative stress occurs when the body accumulates too many electron-depleted (oxidized) biomolecules, disrupting cellular function. Without enough antioxidants to restore balance, this electron imbalance leads to inflammation, metabolic dysfunction, and degenerative disease. Levy’s perspective challenges conventional medicine by framing health and disease as electrical phenomena—where the flow of electrons dictates well-being.
