| Understanding our Lymphatic System | The Lymphatic system is a complicated network of vessels, ducts, and nodes that move fluid between our cells and tissues. Our body contains about 50% more Lymphatic fluid than blood. Lymphatic fluid is vital to the life process, bathing all the cells, it acts as a medium of exchange; trading food for the cells for the waste products. This waste contains micro-organisms, damaged cells, and protein molecules that are too large or too toxic to go directly into the blood stream through the capillary walls. When the Lymphatic system slows down, is congested or blocked, we have less defence against attacks by viruses, fungi and bacteria. These waste products accumulate and stagnate which can cause a feeling of unwellness, lack of energy or fatigue. Unlike our venous system, our Lymphatic system has no natural pumping mechanism to keep the fluid circulating through the body. Therefore, the Lymphatic system is always at a higher risk of congestion and dysfunction. Today's often too sedentary a lifestyle inhibits the capacity of a fully functioning Lymphatic system. An impaired or dysfunctional Lymphatic system can be the result of: - Colds, Flu, Sinus, Bronchitis and Viral condition - Oedema, Water Retention, Cellulite, Lethargy - Chronic & subacute inflammation and pain - Heart Disease, Cancer, Enlarged Prostate - Fibrocystic and Tender Breast tissue - Early aging and overall sense of unwellness |
