453: Aging = Oxidation: How Vitamin C and Mitochondrial Support Reverse the Damage | Dr. Levy


Listen Later

In this episode of the Ancient Health Podcast, Dr. Thomas Levy breaks down for us how oxidative stress—driven by toxins, infections, and nutrient deficiencies—is the real driver of aging and disease. Liposomal vitamin C and glutathione can provide rapid relief, support autoimmune conditions, and restore cellular function by replenishing electrons the body loses to toxins.


Dr. Levy also highlights how dental infections, especially root canals, can trigger inflammation throughout the body, making oral health essential for anyone dealing with chronic illness. The conversation covers everything from the role of B vitamins and niacin in energy and mental health to methylene blue, nutrient loss from processed foods, and his “Super 8” supplement protocol designed to fight oxidative stress.

Dr. Levy discusses how: 

Toxins are the root of oxidation

All disease patterns are caused by oxidation

Root canals and disease are linked 

Liposomal’s advantage over other nutrient delivery forms


Dr. Levy’s super 8 supplements for fighting aging and disease: 

Vitamin C — central antioxidant, reduces oxidative stress

Magnesium — helps lower intracellular calcium (which otherwise increases oxidative stress)

Vitamin D — part of his calcium-modulation group
Vitamin K — works with D and magnesium to normalize calcium inside cells
Niacin / Niacinamide (Vitamin B3) — fuels the electron transport chain by boosting NAD, supporting ATP production
Riboflavin (Vitamin B2) — supports the ETC (flavin coenzymes)
Coenzyme Q10 — critical electron carrier in mitochondrial energy production
Methylene Blue — can bypass parts of the electron transport chain to generate ATP efficiently
