Stress Mitigation Endocrine

Meaning

Stress Mitigation Endocrine refers to the therapeutic strategy and clinical goal of optimizing the function and resilience of the hormonal axes responsible for managing physiological and psychological stress, primarily the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis. This involves interventions aimed at preventing excessive cortisol secretion, improving adrenal gland responsiveness, and enhancing the negative feedback mechanisms that shut down the stress response efficiently. Effective mitigation is essential for preserving overall health and preventing the catabolic and inflammatory effects of chronic stress. This is a key pillar of longevity medicine.
