Microblog: Ways to Support Detox — Lymph
Our heart has a pump which helps the blood constantly circulate.
❗️Our lymphs don’t have that luxury.
🏃🏻♀️So we need to MOVE.
⚠️The only way that lymph can move is through exercise, breathing and muscular contractions.
🛡A healthy lymphatic system is key to immune health. The lymphatic system helps protect the body from infection against bacteria, fungi, viruses, and toxins.
❗️And there’s more lymph in our bodies than blood.
💦The lymphatic system is a network of thin tubes, fluid and lymph nodes.
🤺The lymph nodes are the factory for white blood cells (lymphocytes) that make antibodies that defend against infections.
🛡The thymus, spleen and bone marrow play key roles in the lymphatic system’s function.
THE LYMPHATIC SYSTEM:
🔅distributes fluid and nutrients in the body
🔅prevents tissues from swelling
And removes:
✖️toxins
✖️heavy metals
✖️cancerous cells
✖️other waste products
out of the body.
