The continuous, subtle calibration of endogenous physiological processes to maintain peak operational efficiency and adaptability within biological limits.
Origin
This term borrows from precision engineering, applying control system theory to human homeostatic mechanisms.
Mechanism
It operates by iteratively adjusting inputs like nutrient timing or light exposure to improve cellular signaling clarity, ensuring that receptor sensitivity and enzyme kinetics remain optimally responsive to hormonal cues.
