Episode Summary:
According to Cancer Research UK, this works because, "as the blood circulates around the body, fluid leaks out from the blood vessels unto the body tissues. This fluid carries food to the cells and bathes the body tissues to form tissue fluid. The fluid then collects waste products, bacteria, and damaged cells, as well as any cancer cells if present. This fluid then drains into the lymph system. The lymph then flows through the lymph vessels into the lymph glands, which filter out any bacteria and damaged cells."
Once filtered, the lymph leaves the glands and moves into larger lymphatic vessels to the thoracic duct at the base of the neck. Lymph is then released back into the bloodstream, free of any harmful infection or bacteria.
The lymphatic system also helps to maintain fluid balance within the body.
"Lymph contains a high number of white blood cells called lymphocytes that work to target and destroy damaged or abnormal cells from the body."

Quotes:
"The lymphatic system works similarly, as the blood gets circulated throughout the blood via the blood vessels. Except, instead of carrying blood, the lymphatic vessels carry lymph fluid through the body."
"The fluid loss (approximately 2 liters a day) would cause dehydration if the lymphatic system did not take it from the tissues, clean it, and recirculate it into the body (John Stoddard Cancer Center, 2017)."
"Turmeric is excellent for its naturally occurring anti-inflammatory properties, which can help with inflammation in the body caused by stress and poor diet."
