Homeostasis

From MEpedia, a crowd-sourced encyclopedia of ME and CFS science and history

Homeostasis describes a self-regulating process by which a biological system makes adjustments to achieve a state optimal for survival.[1] It is stability produced by dynamic equilibrium, i.e. continual change to produce a consistent condition.[1]
