Story behind the word: The word 'biorhythm' originated from the combination of the Greek words 'bios' meaning life and 'rhythmos' meaning regular movement or flow.

Evolution of the word: The term 'biorhythm' was first introduced in the late 19th century by Wilhelm Fliess, a German physician, to describe the cyclical patterns in human behavior and physiology.
