Ways to Better Health through a Healthy Lymphatic System

The Lymphatic System

The lymphatic system is a network of tissues and organs that help rid the body of toxins, waste, and other harmful substances. The system includes the small lymph nodes, which are bean-shaped structures found throughout the body.

The lymph nodes filter the lymphatic fluid as it passes through them, removing bacteria and other debris. The lymphatic fluid then flows through the lymphatics, a small tube network that carries it back into the bloodstream.

The lymphatics also help transport fats and other nutrients from the intestine to the rest of the body. In addition to the lymph nodes and lymphatics, the lymphatic system also includes the tonsils, adenoids, spleen, thymus, adenoids, appendix, and bone marrow.

These organs help to produce white blood cells, which play an essential role in fighting infection. The lymphatic system is a vital part of the immune system and helps to keep the body healthy.

How to Live Your Best Life and Eat a Whole Food Plant-Based Diet

If you’re interested in eating a whole food plant-based diet, you can do a few things to ensure success. Start by gradually increasing the number of plants in your diet. If you’re used to mainly eating meat and processed foods, it can be hard to make the switch overnight.

How Phytoestrogens Behave in Estrogen Positive Breast Cancer

What are Phytoestrogens

Phytoestrogens are estrogens that are derived from plants and have a structure similar to human estrogen. Phytoestrogens can bind to estrogen receptors (ERs) in the body. Because of this, there is interest in using them as cancer preventives and therapies, particularly for estrogen-positive breast cancer. There are three main types of phytoestrogens: isoflavones, lignans, and coumestans. Isoflavones are found in soybeans and soy products. Lignans are found in flaxseed and flax oil and some fruits, vegetables, and whole grains. Coumestans are found in alfalfa and clover.
