Allostasis

He calls this wear and tear allostatic load, from the term allostasis, a physiological adaptation that attempts to maintain a dynamic balance in a system under pressure from a variety of sources. ❋ Editors (2010)

In the biology of the human living system, '' 'allostasis' '' refers to physiological mechanisms that enable the system to adjust to diverse perturbing, stressful, and potentially harmful circumstances, and thereby maintain system viability, specifically through changes in the system's properties, its bodily state — 'adaptation'. ❋ Unknown (2008)

This has been called "allostasis" or "stability through change" by Sterling and Eyer ❋ Unknown (2008)

In the biology of the human living system, '' '' allostasis '' '' refers to physiological mechanisms that enable the system to adjust beneficially to diverse perturbing, stressful, and potentially harmful external and internal circumstances, and thereby maintain system viability, specifically through changes in the system's properties, its bodily state — viz., by 'adapting' the system to the stressor. ❋ Unknown (2008)

Imbalance in either system from chronic stress leads to disruption of allostasis. ❋ William Kent Krueger (2010)

With rest, calm, and adequate protein consumption, your norepinephrine stores come back efficiently and you recover to allostasis quickly. ❋ William Kent Krueger (2010)

This is another example of multiple systems communicating in an integrated and purposeful way to maintain allostasis. ❋ William Kent Krueger (2010)

But when your multiple internal systems are well coordinated to maintain allostasis, you thrive. ❋ William Kent Krueger (2010)
