The lymphatic system is part of the body’s circulatory system and is made up of an intricate network of interconnected ganglia, vessels, and veins. These are responsible for transporting the liquid known as lymph..
Lymph comes from the blood, but it is not the same, it is completely colorless because it lacks red blood cells and is made up of a large amount of water. It is responsible for eliminating waste and toxins that are produced by metabolic processes, accumulated waste in the tissues and the remains of bacteria, among many other things.
Its circulation is possible thanks to instinctive muscular constructions, but many times this procedure is truncated, which triggers an inadequate drainage and the consequent accumulation of liquids.
