Neural Cleansing describes targeted processes aimed at reducing the accumulation of metabolic waste products, inflammatory cytokines, and dysfunctional cellular debris within the central nervous system environment. This supports optimal synaptic function and reduces neuroinflammation that can impair higher cognitive processes. It is a necessary prerequisite for robust brain performance.
Origin
This phrase combines “Neural,” relating to neurons and the nervous system, with “Cleansing,” implying purification or removal of detritus. Conceptually, it draws parallels with the glymphatic system’s role in clearing amyloid-beta during sleep. It reflects an active approach to maintaining the CNS microenvironment.
Mechanism
The functional mechanism often involves optimizing cerebrospinal fluid dynamics and enhancing the activity of glial cells, particularly microglia, in phagocytosis. Dietary strategies supporting antioxidant status and reducing systemic inflammatory load indirectly support this CNS clearance. Effective neural cleansing ensures that signaling molecules can transmit their messages without interference from cellular noise or waste accumulation.
