Adenosine Clearance Protocol

Meaning

The Adenosine Clearance Protocol represents a structured, clinically-informed approach to optimizing the removal or antagonism of the neuromodulator adenosine from the central nervous system. Adenosine naturally accumulates during prolonged wakefulness, acting as a powerful somnogen that signals the need for sleep and contributes to cognitive fatigue. This protocol aims to enhance sustained alertness, sharpen executive function, and ensure the appropriate magnitude of sleep drive at the correct time for optimal recovery. Successful clearance is paramount for maintaining neurobiological homeostasis and supporting consistent high-level performance.
