Description
Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) has a role, in keeping the brain and spinal cord safe and nourished within the nervous system (CNS). This clear and colorless fluid is produced in the ventricles of the brain. Surrounds these structures acting as a protective cushion. CSF plays a role in maintaining nervous system health and ensuring optimal functioning. CSF accomplishes four objectives.
Protection: The brain and spinal cord are shielded from harm due to CSFs natural shock absorbing properties. This effectively safeguards these structures, from injuries caused by impacts or collisions.
Nutrition It ensures a favorable environment for neural cells to perform at their peak by supplying essential nutrients and removing waste products from the brain and spinal cord.
