Glymphatic System Detoxification

Meaning

The physiological process of clearing metabolic waste products and neurotoxins from the central nervous system, facilitated by the specialized perivascular network known as the glymphatic system. Detoxification in this context refers to the efficient removal of soluble proteins, including amyloid-beta, which accumulate during waking hours. This function is essential for maintaining optimal brain health and cognitive integrity.
