Scientists at Tohoku University, Sendai, Japan made an exciting discovery regarding cellular mechanisms that assist in developing our brains. They discovered that lactate plays an important role in helping neural stem cells become specialized neurons. Lactate happens to be the by-product of exercise and metabolism. Researchers even gave this process a fancy name: Neuronal Differentiation. What does lactate mean? Before we go further, lets talk about lactate first. It, essentially is, an inter-tissue redox signaling molecule. In simple words, it helps cells communicate with each other and maintain a healthy…
