hormesis

Hormetics is the term proposed for the study and science of hormesis.

The biochemical mechanisms by which hormesis works are not well understood.

Their beneficial action at correct dosage is not considered an example of hormesis.

In 2001 a one page addendum on radiation hormesis was added.

A study by Otsuka and collaborators find hormesis in animals.

Exercise is a paradigm for hormesis in this respect.

Some scientists assert that low levels of radiation are beneficial to health (this idea is known as hormesis).

The idea of radiation hormesis is considered unproven by regulatory bodies.

University of Massachusetts center for research on hormesis.

Intermittent fasting may function as a form of nutritional hormesis.

The hormesis model of dose response is vigorously debated.

Research has pointed toward hormesis as an explanation.

This has been termed an 'adaptive response' and is related to hypothetical mechanisms of hormesis.

However, they cautioned that it is not yet known if radiation hormesis occurs outside the laboratory, or in humans.

Whether hormesis is common or important is controversial.

The hypothesis of hormesis has generated the most controversy when applied to ionizing radiation.

The notion that hormesis is important for chemical risks regulations is not widely accepted.

The eponymous "Hueppe's rule" is an historical term synonymous with hormesis.

The rule is no longer cited in modern pharmacology texts, having been supplanted by the theory of hormesis.

This process was previously named mitohormesis or mitochondrial hormesis on a purely hypothetical basis.

This theory is called radiation hormesis.

This study is cited as evidence for hormesis, but a single study all by itself cannot be regarded as definitive.

The most frequently cited alternatives are the "linear quadratic" model and the "hormesis" model.

Recently, Edward Calabrese has revived the hormesis theory through his research on peppermint plants.

One of the areas where the concept of hormesis has been explored extensively with respect to its applicability is aging.
