Physiological Entropy

Meaning

The measurable, inevitable tendency for the body’s complex biological systems to lose order, efficiency, and functional capacity over time, leading to cellular damage, hormonal imbalance, and the progressive decline associated with aging. This term applies the thermodynamic concept of increasing disorder to the human organism, representing the natural drift away from optimal homeostatic balance. The primary objective of anti-aging medicine is to actively counteract or slow this physiological entropy.
