Are you susceptible to
infection or inflammation?
The lymphatic system:
An essential part
of good health

Sniffly, stuffed-up, inflamed...
Does any of the following sound familiar?
• Constant recurring colds
• Chronic sore throat
• Swollen lymph nodes
• Sinus inflammation or infection
Possible causes for recurring infections:
• Ongoing stress
• Frequent intake of antibiotics disturbing our good
bacteria
• Chronic exposure to illness (ie. at school)
• Sluggish lymphatic system
Lymph nodes and tonsils are an important part of our
immune system — and also our lymphatic system.
Swollen tonsils and lymph nodes during an infection
are signs of increased activity — the immune system is
acting to defend us against pathogens.
Support your lymphatic system and
thereby strengthen your immune system!
Strengthen your lymphatic system
Do you know how important your lymphatic
system is?
The lymphatic system is a defense and drainage
system for the body. It filters out organisms that cause disease, produces white blood cells, and generates disease-fighting antibodies. It also drains excess fluids and debris so that tissues do not become
congested or inflamed.
It is a network of tubes, connected by lymph nodes.
When you are ill, these lymph nodes become full of
active immune cells and can swell to the point where
you can feel them. If your lymphatic system is suffering, your immune system will suffer too!
Signs of a sluggish lymphatic system
• Chronic recurring infection
• Swollen lymph nodes
• Swelling anywhere in the body
