🍀How to Naturally Cleanse the Lymphatic System to Fight Chronic Disease!
If you’re constantly getting sick, feel tired all the time, or have trouble losing weight, you may want to think about cleansing your lymphatic system.
Learning how to naturally cleanse the lymphatic system isn’t as hard as it might sound. There are many practical things you can do today to help give your lymphatic system the help it needs.
If you’re interested in preventing disease and cleansing your body of toxins, pollutants, additives, and chemicals, then you’ve come to the right place.
🍀What is the Lymphatic System?
The lymphatic system is a network of tissues and organs that help rid the body of toxins, waste and other unwanted materials.
The lymphatic system functions primarily to transport lymph, a fluid containing infection-fighting white blood cells, throughout the body.
The lymphatic system is also involved in fluid recovery and lipid absorption.
Unlike our circulatory system, our lymphatic system does not have a “pump”. With the circulatory system, blood is pumped throughout the body by means of a constantly beating heart.
The lymphatic system, on the other hand, has no heart to pump it. It depends on daily movement on our behalf to help shuttle lymph fluid around the body.
The tonsils, adenoids, spleen, and thymus are all part of the lymphatic system. They’re all connected by a web of lymphatic vessels which, in a sense, is like a second circulatory system of the body.
The lymph nodes themselves are made up of sinuses filled with immunological cells, such as lymphocytes and macrophages, that both identify and eliminate viruses, bacteria, cell debris, cancer cells, and other foreign substances that invade our body.
Each part or segment of the body drains into a specific pack of lymph nodes. Neighboring areas which drain into different lymph nodes are separated by so-called watersheds.
Each watershed drains to a particular region of lymph nodes.
After the lymph fluid passes through these nodes it enters larger lymphatic trunks within the body.
After traveling through the lymphatic trunks, the lymph fluid empties into the subclavian vein at the base of the neck
