Homeostasis is your body's way of keeping things like temperature and blood pH level within acceptable ranges. What happens when you fall out of homeostasis depends on what system fails. For example, if your body produces too much insulin, it will take too much sugar out of your blood which may lead to loss of consciousness or death if left untreated. Any homeostatic system that fails is likely to cause death after a period of time, if left untreated.

If homeostasis is not maintained properly, the body's internal environment can become imbalanced, leading to various health issues. This can compromise functions such as temperature regulation, pH balance, blood sugar levels, and fluid balance, which can disrupt the body's ability to function efficiently and may result in illness or disease.
