DrBeen#58 MTHFR Gene Mutation and the Risk of Clotting In the United States, 20-40% of whites and hispanics have MTHFR gene mutation (C677T). This mutation leads to reduced function of MTHFR enzyme to 65% of normal. The second most common mutation leads to reduced function of MTHFR enzyme, to 30% of normal. The result of these performance issues is reduced methyl groups' availability for methy...

Hence, it reduces inflammation in the brain and also keeps aquaporin...

DrBeen#49 Norepinephrine, Glymphatic System, and Brain Health During the wakeful hours, the production of norepinephrine increases. This increase helps with alertness, but also causes vasoconstriction. The outcome is a reduction in the interstitial fluid levels and reduction in the clearance of waste products. During sleep, NE levels reduce, reversing the above mentioned mechanisms, leading to mor...

DrBeen#48 Alzheimer's, Sleep Disturbance, and Brain Health Studies present an association between APOE4 and sleep disturbance. Additionally APOE4 is linked to sleep disturbance before the onset of Alzheimer's symptoms.

DrBeen#47 Role of The Glymphatic System in Sleep and Brain Health N3 Sleep, Glymphatic System, and Brain Health N3 phase of the sleep is characterised by delta waves, also called slow wave sleep (SWS). This is the most restorative phase of the sleep. An important part of this phase is the increase in the glymphatic convection in the brain leading to clearance of the waste products. Let's revie...

DrBeen#46 Intermittent Fasting and Brain Health Intermittent fasting causes production of beta hydroxybutarate, which in turn helps improve the glymphatic flow of fluids in the brain. This in turn leads to a better clearance of waste products from the brain, helping to improve the cognitive state, memory, and potentially stall the progress of dementia.
