Abstract

In our increasingly stressed world, especially with the COVID- 19 pandemic, the activation of the threat network in everyday situations can negatively affect our internal and physical health. Neurophysiological response to these threats challenges depends on the type of challenge and the existent’s neuroadaptability. Neuroadaptability is defined as the capability of the nervous system to alter responsiveness over time to reoccurring stimulants. Neuroadaptability differs from neuroplasticity, which is further inclusive and refers to the capability of the nervous system to change and learn from any experience. We examine neuroadaptability and how it affects health from the perspective of modern drug and Ayurveda.
