Stress Hormone Countermeasures

Meaning

Stress Hormone Countermeasures are proactive and reactive clinical and behavioral strategies designed to safely mitigate the excessive or prolonged detrimental physiological effects of glucocorticoids, catecholamines, and other hormones released during chronic stress exposure. The primary objective is to actively prevent the damaging impacts of sustained stress on critical metabolic function, immune resilience, and the delicate hormonal balance. These measures aim to restore optimal HPA axis sensitivity and prevent the debilitating state of allostatic overload.
