TOP 10 LYMPH FACTS AS THEY RELATE TO YOUR BREAST HEALTH
Share
Lymph nodes are part of your immune system and waste removal system.
Your breast lymphatic system filters harmful substances: carbon dioxide, infection, bacteria, viruses, cancer cells.
You have more lymph in your breasts than any other fatty tissue in your body.
Lymph fluid always only flows through lymph vessels in one direction... in the case of your breasts, the lymph fluid movement always moves towards your lymph nodes.
Breast lymph nodes responsible for filtering your breasts are located under your armpit, in your sternum, collar bone area and underneath your breast. BUT from 75-90 % of the waste in your breasts is filtered through the lymph nodes in your armpits.
Lymph is your second circulatory system – blood being the first
Blood has the heart to pump and create movement throughout your body. Whereas, lymph depends on movement, such as muscle contraction, deep breathing, rebounding, breast bouncing and natural movement and more –
BUT HERE'S THE IMPORTANT PART!!! There is no muscle tissue in your breasts to help create lymph movement....well, with exception of some smooth muscle in your nipple.
It is important to support and stimulate your breast's lymph movement today because modern day living can create a heavy toxic burden as well as substantial inhibiting
of breast lymph flow via sedentary living, shallow breathing, tight bras that do not allow movement – the medical community calls this stasis.
You can support lymph movement in your breasts with herbs, touch, massage, deep breathing, rebounding, walking and moving without a bra.
Your breasts' lymphatic system is resilient and is perfectly designed to thrive when treated proactively, interactively and intentionally.
