Headspace: clearing out dangerous waste from your brain

There has been a recent study about the newly identified headspace in your brain that helps clear out toxic metabolic waste like tau proteins and amyloid, which are associated with Alzheimer’s.

Researchers from Oregon Health & Science University are the first to provide visual evidence of a network of fluid-filled pathways alongside arteries and veins in the brain (called the glymphatic system). That system flushes out potentially harmful proteins and metabolic wastes generated by the brain’s energy-intensive neural processes — and transports non-waste products such as glucose, lipids, amino acids, and certain neurotransmitters.

The researchers also recommend that everyone who wants to keep their brains clear of these dementia risks adopt improved sleep habits. They think that is essential for an optimally well-functioning glymphatic system. The bottom line: Maintaining a regular sleep schedule, even on weekends, avoiding screens in the bedroom before you’re headed to sleep, and adopting a relaxing pre-bed routine (maybe reading, taking a hot bath or shower, or meditating) are habits that are going to help clear toxins out of your headspace.
