I have read that neurons actually shrink during sleep thus allowing toxins that have built up during the awakened state to flow past and out. How correct is this? If so, at what stage in sleep does this purging occur?

Hi David,
It is correct what you read. whilst we sleep, we 'clean up' our brain and 'put the garbage out'. By shrinking, our neurons give way for this 'garbage' to leave.
Regarding the stage at which that occurs, I couldn't find additional information. It seems the research hasn't been done yet.
