Well, that is the reason why the lymphatic system acts as the “middle man” between the body cells and the circulatory system.The interstitium surrounds the body cells and the interstitium is highly lipophilic to lipid substances plus the lymphatic system is able to redistribute lipids to the tissue compartments and helps to store lipid soluble vitamins in the fatty tissue, mainly te liver.
