English term (edited): to maintain a stable state of inter-organ fuel homeostasis

Homeostasis | Definition, Function, Examples, & Facts

homeostasis, any self-regulating process by which biological systems tend to maintain stability while adjusting to conditions that are optimal for survival. If homeostasis is successful, life continues; if unsuccessful, disaster or death ensues. The stability attained is actually a dynamic equilibrium, in which continuous change occurs yet relatively uniform conditions prevail.

KEY POINT homeostasis is a continuing process, involving oscillations around some equilibrium point.

These oscillations around the equilibrium point can be minimal (= a stable state) or can be quite wild, even to the point of no return.

so, the point of this sentence is "to maintain a stable state" = make sure that deviations from the equilibrium are minimal, that "the process of homeostasis" is not turning into a runaway train, or wildly swinging from one extreme to the opposite extreme.

To male a comparison, riding a bicycle is a continuing fight to keep the bicycle in "equilibrium position". It can be done by barely perceptible variations in the riding position (= a stable stable), or by wildly swinging from one side to the other barely avoid the fall.
