Resilient aging describes the capacity to maintain or regain functional health despite biological aging, stress, illness, or environmental challenges. It reflects the ability to adapt physiologically, cognitively, and emotionally to age-related changes. Resilient aging is supported by efficient stress responses, metabolic flexibility, immune balance, and psychological coping mechanisms. Individuals who age resiliently often experience delayed functional decline and better recovery from adverse events. Biological resilience interacts with lifestyle, social support, and environmental stability. Understanding resilient aging highlights mechanisms that preserve adaptability rather than eliminate aging itself. This concept guides research toward enhancing recovery capacity, stress tolerance, and long-term functional independence during aging.
