  13. New #studies show that a #bacterial molecule, #peptidoglycan, is present in the #brain and fluctuates with #sleep patterns. This challenges the idea that sleep is solely brain-driven, instead suggesting it’s a #collaborative process between our #bodies and #microbiomes. The theory links #microbes not only to sleep but also to #cognition, #appetite, and #behavior, pointing to a profound #evolutionary relationship
