A member asked:

How is csf regenerated?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Via choroid plexus: CSF generated in ventricles via choriod plexus and procudes about 3cc/minutes . Its a clear transparent fluid. It circulates around the brain and spinal cord provinding necessary nutritients. It is reabsorbs via arachnoid villi. It is constantly being produced and reabsorbs. Hope this helps.
