Glymphatic System ExplainedAdded:
discovered the glymphatic system decades later when we think we are done finding our stuff in the brain. What happens is when we sleep the space between the brain cells increases a little bit because of changes in oxygen and carbon dioxide. And [music] that allows the clearance of metabolic waste products allows CSF to flow in more cerebrospinal >> spinal fluid flow in and eliminate all the toxins within the body. So the glymphatic system is basically like a urban clap for the brain.
