21.1 Homeostasis v Allostasis

[@adamvasarhelyi9781]

After reading my prescribed book and half an hour on google, I finally understood the concepts thanks to this person's amazing explanation.

Homeostasis is one of those concepts that fascinate me and relate a lot and can find a connection in many aspects of my life. Thank you for explaining.

Thank you for this video. I deeply appreciate your simple definition and introduction to the conversation.

I really like how you did that, you made me laugh. Not necessarily the correct time when I've got an exam in an hour but funny none the less.

I appreciate your explanation of homeostasis vs allostasis!! Broke this down very nicely to understanding the differences, making me understand this more promptly in 6 mins haha. thank you!

"health" is the nebulous mean point that most people are trying to achieve, but as a multi-dimensional point it is hard to calculate a vector to navigate customers or patients towards without a variety of data points about their current position in health

You're a rascal! Love it! You familiar with Deb Cohen's work (and pop book A Big Fat Crisis)? She very much agrees and is going after policies.

That was a really nice explanation. Thank you very much

[@DenisFortier]

Thanks. Very useful!

[@volvacontenidos8575]

So, could we consider allostasis as the homeostasis in particular and contextualized moments?

[@drdavid62]

Well, that was the politically correct perspective, at least within the medical establishment where drugs and surgery continue to be the preferred means of treating dis-ease.
