What is the Lymphatic System and what is the purpose of this breathing exercise? By breathing we stimulate the flow of the lymph, and through deep breathing, we encourage a larger flow of the cleansing lymph fluid. Once we breathe, the lymph ducts send the lymph into our blood flow, then onto the liver where it metabolizes and then onto the kidneys where toxins are filtered. The lymphatic system plays a key role in the immune system, fluid balance, and absorption of fats and fat-soluble nutrients. The lymphatic system acts as a one-way drainage system transporting fluid from body tissues into the blood circulation and contains white blood cells called lymphocytes, which fight infection and gets rid of waste products produced by cells. Lymph nodes Lymph nodes are found throughout the body, but mainly in the neck, armpits, groin, and tummy (abdomen). They filter and break down bacteria (germs) or other harmful cells from the lymph fluid The lymph nodes swell in response to infection, due to a build-up of lymph fluid, bacteria, or other organisms and immune system cells. We recommend this exercise daily and ideally twice a day to get the Lymph system moving, exercise and rebounding are also great ways to get the lymph system moving.
