Lymphatic System – Part 1
Dr. Rodney and Karen will talk about a vital body system that you might be ignoring.
To do so can result in some surprising symptoms (wait for them at the end of the episode).
A healthy lymphatic system is vital to the flow of circulation, filtering lymph and blood, getting rid of pollutants and fighting infections. Stop ignoring yours.
Basically, the lymphatic system removes toxins and waste products from the body. Another vital role is to remove surplus fluid that drains from cells and tissues throughout the body and sends it to the circulation.
Takeaways:
The structure of the lymphatic system is different from the circulatory system.
It is slow acting and does not have a pump other than the muscles of your body to start moving the lymph liquid.
It’s a filtration system that helps you choose your battles as far as fighting off the bad guys.
Lymph resembles the clear fluid (like plasma) that comes out of a wound.
It is the front line of defense for the immune system to transport what’s needed to keep you healthy.
Create habits that will increase the function of your lymphatic system.
