Subject: Why the Blood-Brain Barrier Is So Critical (and How to Maintain It)
It’s imperative to maintain a health blood-brain barrier. This serves as a guard for our brains letting in important things like glucose, amino acids, nutrients, and ketones while warding off toxins and pathogens. Ways to promote BBB health include taking vitamin B, drinking tea/coffee for caffeine, eating prebiotic fiber, upping magnesium intake, and sleep, just to name a few.
Key Takeaways:
- The job of the gut lining is to be selectively permeable, allowing helpful things passage into the body and preventing harmful things from getting in.
- A similarly dynamic barrier lies between the brain and the rest of the body: the blood-brain barrier.
- Some pathogens even wield chemical weaponry that blasts open the blood-brain barrier, giving them—and anything else in the vicinity—access to the brain.
