Homeostatic Modulator

Meaning

A Homeostatic Modulator is an agent or intervention designed to help restore or maintain the dynamic equilibrium of the body’s internal physiological systems, a state known as homeostasis. These modulators do not necessarily replace deficient substances but rather fine-tune the body’s intrinsic regulatory loops, such as the HPA axis, immune response, or metabolic pathways. In hormonal health, this refers to substances that optimize the body’s self-regulating capacity, ensuring that hormones, neurotransmitters, and inflammatory markers remain within optimal functional ranges despite external stressors. It supports the body’s inherent ability to self-correct.
