Homeostatic regulation is controlled in the body by the autonomic nervous system and seeks to maintain relatively stable conditions in the internal environment.
The main gland of homeostasis is the hypothalamus and the major organ of homeostasis are the kidneys.
Malfunctions in homeostatic mechanisms can disrupt the body's internal balance, leading to health issues. For example, if the body's temperature regulation system fails, it can result in fever or hypothermia. Similarly, disruptions in blood glucose regulation can lead to conditions like diabetes.
Failure of homeostatic regulation in the body can lead to a variety of health issues such as high blood pressure, diabetes, and dehydration. This imbalance can disrupt normal bodily functions and ultimately impact overall well-being.
Young adulthood is the period of optimum homeostatic efficiency. During childhood, homeostatic functions gradually become more efficient. As we age, after young adulthood, they become less efficient.
homeostatic mechanisms involve: - the regulation of blood glucose - breathing rate - heart rate - oxygen levels - osmoregulation (water levels) - thermoregulation (temperature control)
Homeostatic disorders can occurs in many different systems of the body, but since the kidneys are the major organs of homeostasis, when something goes wrong with them, there are serious consequences to other systems, even leading to death without dialysis treatment.
The body's primary mechanism of homeostatic regulation is negative feedback. This mechanism recognizes the problem, identifies the correction, and changes the variable.

Thomas Gordon Overmire has written: 'Homeostatic regulation'
The processes and activities that help to maintain homeostasis are referred to as homeostatic mechanisms. for example regulation of blood pressure, regulation of pH in the body fluids and regulation of blood glucose levels.
Cyclooxygenase 1 is important for homeostatic maintenance such as platelet aggregation, the regulation of blood flow in the kidney and stomach, and the regulation of gastric acid secretion

Two examples of homeostatic variables controlled by negative feedback are body temperature regulation and blood glucose levels. In both cases, the body responds to deviations from the set point by initiating processes that work to bring the variable back within the normal range.

The three important component parts of the homeostatic mechanism are receptors, the control center and effectors.
