The daily detoxification of metabolic waste, bacteria, and environmental toxins from our bodies is the job of the lymphatic system. Like tributaries the lymph system moves vascular fluid and waste all over the body to more than 500 filtration sites.
Cellulite may result from poor lymphatic circulation. Clusters of fat cells that trap toxins concentrated on the thighs, upper arms, and buttocks result in unsightly skin bulges know as cellulite. Toxins and lymphatic fluid accumulate in pockets of fat with impaired lymph flow.
Cellulite is a superficial accumulation of fat with water retention due to poor circulation. Improve the circulation of lymph fluid in areas prone to cellulite diminish cellulite from the inside out.
Poor lymphatic circulation will cause “excessive damp” in the body according Chinese Medicine. Damp body types are prone to lethargy, heavy sensations in the abdomen and legs, headaches, allergies, food sensitivities, joint pain, and cellulite.
The lymphatic system reduces body sludge by cleansing every cell in the body. By improving our diet, reducing our toxic load, and eliminating excess fluid from our body the appearance of cellulite can be improved.
The lymphatic system is vital to the body’s immune system. Unlike the cardiovascular system, which uses the heart to pump blood for circulation, the lymph system has no mechanism other than muscle contraction to propel the fluid to the lymph nodes where toxins are eliminated. Poor lymph circulation can result from chronic illness, chemicals and pesticides in food, pollution, stress, sedentary life style, high fat, and high sugar diets.
