I just discovered brain cells also have a digestive system

And that's why we need to sleep.
When you sleep, brain cells shrink, allowing their own shit to flow down through the glymphatic system.
If even brain cells have a digestive system, then the theory about stars being holes through which the universe feeds on light is true.
Astrophysics could benefit greatly from biology. It is sad science has become a collection of ivory towers, isolated from each other.

Could you explain further?

Google AI explained to me brain cells produce certain proteins that, when in excess, decreases brain function, because it clogs the space between each cell. These cells need to communicate between each other when you are using your brain. That's why our attention suffers when we have bad sleep.

The system was discovered in 2012.

Interesting, I can't say may much, but do let me know in your progress.
