Vigor Equation

Meaning

The Vigor Equation is a conceptual, clinical model representing the complex interplay of measurable physiological parameters and subjective well-being metrics that collectively define an individual’s vitality, resilience, and functional capacity, particularly in the context of hormonal health and aging. It posits that true “vigor” is a function of optimal endocrine balance—such as balanced thyroid and sex hormones—robust mitochondrial function, low inflammatory burden, and high cognitive reserve. This equation is a clinical tool used to move beyond single-biomarker assessment toward a comprehensive, multi-systemic evaluation of health and longevity potential.
