Physiological Balance

Meaning

Physiological balance, also known as homeostasis, is the dynamic state of equilibrium within the body’s internal environment, where all vital parameters, including temperature, pH, blood glucose, and hormone levels, are maintained within narrow, optimal ranges. This state of stable equilibrium is achieved through continuous, self-regulating control systems that detect deviations and initiate compensatory mechanisms. Maintaining physiological balance is the overarching goal of the endocrine system and is essential for preventing disease and ensuring long-term vitality.
