What is the Origin of Endogenous Wellness?

Combining the Greek endon (within) with the concept of wellness, this term highlights health derived from internal biological sources rather than external supplementation or intervention. It anchors wellness within the realm of innate human physiology.

What is the Mechanism of Endogenous Wellness?

This is sustained through efficient feedback control systems, such as the negative feedback governing the HPA axis, ensuring cortisol levels remain appropriate for daily demands without external modulation. Optimal nutrient partitioning, efficient mitochondrial function, and balanced neurotransmitter synthesis all contribute to this self-sustaining state of physiological harmony.

Endogenous Wellness

Meaning

Endogenous Wellness signifies a state of optimal physiological function achieved and maintained primarily through internal biological processes and self-regulatory mechanisms inherent to the organism. This state reflects a robust, self-supported hormonal milieu where the body efficiently manages its own metabolic and adaptive responses. We aim to foster this intrinsic capacity for health maintenance.
