Inhaling high levels of carbon dioxide intermittently for half an hour flushes proteins linked to Alzheimer's disease out of the brain, a small study has found. Exposure to the gas changes how blood vessels in the brain constrict and dilate while we're awake, mimicking activity that occurs during deep sleep. This then turbocharges the glymphatic system to remove the build-up of waste products that could cause harm.
A 2025 study suggests the same approach could help with Parkinson's disease, by clearing the protein alpha-synuclein. "If you have any condition that is due to or exacerbated by any sort of accumulation of waste, this could be something beneficial," says Sephira Ryman at the University of Texas at Austin.
The brain's waste-disposal, or glymphatic, system is comprised of a network of channels surrounding blood vessels that collect waste fluid released from brain cells. It is most active during deep sleep, when slow brain waves drive blood vessels to dilate and constrict about once every 30 seconds.

The Renewed Hope Act is officially signed into law.
We’re going from 7 victim identification specialists to 200. That’s thousands of boys and girls who now have a real shot at being identified and rescued. So grateful for everyone in Congress who pushed this through.
But here’s the hard truth: the ICSE database has grown from 57,000 unidentified victims to 89,000 in just two years — even after 20,000 kids were rescued. We’re still losing ground faster than we’re gaining it.
This fight is far from over.
ROGER SHERMAN (1721-1793). Self-educated, he became a lawyer and a judge. Politically active in Connecticut from 1755, he was elected to the Continental Congress in 1774. He was appointed to the committee to prepare a draft of the Declaration of Independence, and remained in Congress throughout the war. A delegate to the Constitutional Convention of 1787, he then served in the U.S. House (1789-91) and U.S. Senate (1791-93).
