Why does the lymph stagnate or congest so easily?
Unlike the circulatory system, the lymphatic system does not have a heart to pump the toxic wastes carried in the lymph fluid around & out of the body. The flow of lymph is also determined by the amount of still water you drink, exercise, skin brushing – all of which help the lymph to flow better. Using your mobile phone a lot, working with wireless computers, digital cordless phones and having an under active thyroid, leaky gut with certain food intolerances can all contribute to lymph congestion & stagnation.
