Resilience to Chronic Pressure

Meaning

Resilience to Chronic Pressure is the physiological and psychological capacity of an individual to maintain homeostatic balance and functional integrity despite sustained exposure to prolonged stressors, thereby minimizing the detrimental effects of allostatic load. This resilience is fundamentally dependent on a well-calibrated and flexible neuroendocrine system, particularly the HPA axis, which must appropriately respond to and recover from stress signals. Clinically, enhancing this resilience is a core goal in preventative health and longevity protocols.
