Neuro-Endocrine Integrity

Meaning

Neuro-Endocrine Integrity describes the optimal functional coupling and reciprocal signaling between the central nervous system and the endocrine system, particularly the HPA and HPG axes. Maintaining this integrity ensures that neural inputs correctly modulate hormone release and that systemic hormonal signals appropriately influence neuronal function and plasticity. When this communication is robust, the body exhibits superior adaptability to stress and maintains metabolic equilibrium. Deficits here manifest as both cognitive and hormonal dysregulation.
