REGENERATION
Regeneration (latin regenerare= to recover) is supporting process focused on the recovery or reclamation of physical and mental processes, whose balance (resting equilibrum) was disrupted by previous activity and led to certain degree of fatique. Regeneration is a process specific to each organism. It is associated with the adaptation of the organism to physical or mental load. Passive regeneration - the organism regenerates after each load. Active regeneration includes methods and processes that are specifically used to accelerate the process of passive regeneration
REGENERATION METHODS Regeneration methods are used to restore or improve function of some organs of the human organism, which, due to modern lifestyle, often show some signs of fatigue and/or premature aging. From a broader perspective (z širšího pohledu): biological regeneration of the body is ability to replace worn, damaged or destroyed cells, tissues and organs or parts by healthy ones.
