You must have heard many people saying that so and so's brain is full of dirt, clean the dirt of your brain. But do you know how dirt gets filled in the brain and if it is filled then how does it get cleaned. Let's understand about it from the point of view of science. Let's know how the brain cleans the dirt inside it and where does it throw the garbage.
How is garbage formed in the brain?
Science says that the cells of our brain use a lot of nutrients every day. This creates a lot of garbage inside the brain. But how this garbage comes out, scientists did not know about it till a few years ago. But now scientists have done a research on rats to know about it and through this research they have found out how the brain cleans the garbage inside it.
How does the brain clean up its garbage
A research published in the National Academy of Sciences states that the brain cleans itself from time to time. This is so that the brain works well. To understand this, scientists at Rochester university discovered a network, which is now called the glymphatic system. It is a kind of fluid that flows in the brain and spinal cord. This fluid goes into the deep tissues of the brain and cleans the garbage from there. However, scientists are still researching how this entire network works.
How can you clean your brain's dirt yourself?
In an interview given to German news website DW, Dr. Jeff Iliff of Washington university says that if you want to keep your brain clean, then you should sleep better. This will not only promote the cleanliness of your brain, but will also remove many health problems.
