Biological Bias

Meaning

Biological Bias is the inherent, non-conscious inclination or predisposition within an individual’s physiological systems that favors a specific metabolic, cellular, or hormonal pathway over alternatives. This inclination is often rooted in genetic polymorphisms, epigenetic modifications, or long-term environmental conditioning, influencing processes from nutrient partitioning to stress response sensitivity. Recognizing a patient’s specific biological bias is crucial for tailoring hormonal health interventions to maximize therapeutic efficacy and mitigate potential adverse effects. Understanding these foundational predispositions allows for a more precise and personalized approach to achieving systemic endocrine balance.
