Abstract in brief

  • Stress adaptation involves activating neural, neuroendocrine, and immune mechanisms to maintain stability through change, known as allostasis, which helps the body cope with challenges.
  • Allostatic load refers to the long-term negative effects on the body when these adaptive systems are overstimulated, not properly shut off, or respond inadequately, potentially leading to disease.
  • Different types of allostatic load include frequent system activation, failure to deactivate after stress, and inadequate responses causing other systems to become overactive, with genetic and developmental factors influencing susceptibility.]
