Did You Know!
Your Brain Has Its Own Waste Removal System
Fact: The brain uses a unique system called the glymphatic system to flush out toxins—but only during deep sleep.
Why It’s Wild: This system wasn’t even discovered until the 2010s! It clears waste like beta-amyloid (linked to Alzheimer’s) using cerebrospinal fluid, and if you don’t sleep well, your brain literally doesn’t get “cleaned.”
