So few people talk about the importance of sleep for detoxification, which is why we're bringing it up again!
Research has shown that sleep is essential for cognition and healthy brain function. During sleep, cerebrospinal fluid can clear metabolic waste products. Cerebrospinal fluid is a translucent liquid that flows around the brain and helps cushion the brain and spinal cord from injury, as well as providing nutrients.
After taking another look, research has found that during non-REM sleep, the stage of sleep that occurs when a person is transitioning from being awake to falling asleep, large, slow waves of fluid were washing over the participants' brains after an electrical wave when the neurons would stop firing. This meant that less blood would flow within the brain, yet cerebrospinal fluid would rush in to fill the space, clearing out metabolic byproducts as it moved.
This study shows that sleep has a very distinct function for the brain, and this could have exciting clinical applications for patients in need of cognitive support.
