Our lymphatic systems

Our lymphatic system is part of the vascular system and an important part of the immune system, composed of a large network of lymphatic vessels that carry a clear fluid (called lymph) towards the heart and out of major nodes (found in neck, under arms, and in the groin area). This involves an extensive network of vessels that passes through almost all parts of our body (called lymph).  Lymph circulates through the body in a similar way to blood.There are about 600 lymph nodes in the body. These nodes swell in response to infection, due to a build-up of lymph fluid, bacteria, or other organisms and immune system cells.A person with a throat infection, for example, may feel that their "glands" are swollen. Swollen glands can be felt especially under the jaw, in the armpits, or in the groin area. These are, in fact, not glands but lymph nodes.The lymph nodes swell in response to infection, due to a build-up of lymph fluid, bacteria, or other organisms and immune system cells. Think of the lymphatic system as your own personal toxic waste system. When it’s working properly, toxins are filtered out through your lymph system and out through your sweat! This is one of the reasons why it’s important to keep it healthy.
