Sample Book Insights: #1 The lymphatic system is a secret river that helps keep you healthy. It is made up of lymph cells and fluid, and it intersects with all the other flow systems in your body. When it works like that, it can do its job to keep you healthy. #2 Interstitial fluid is the fluid between cells that is not technically considered lymph. It enters lymph capillaries, and this fluid goes to larger lymphatic vessels through the lymph nodes. The fluid works by conveying substances that nourish, protect, and coordinate the body. #3 The lymphatic system is a network of vessels that helps pump fluid around the body. It is controlled by pressure from various muscular systems and the nearby pulses of the vascular system, which helps to pump lymphatic fluid around the body. #4 The lymphatic system is the river of health that transports toxins, immune cells, and messages throughout the body. It does this via three main functions: transporting toxins and immune cells throughout the body, transporting larger endogenous amino acids, proteins, and fatty substances from your gastrointestinal system to your liver, and storing immune cells.
