Over
the years I can hardly recall the number of times I have been
asked in one way or another, "What is the single most important
thing you have ever learned about acquiring and maintaining a
high level of good health?" The answer is no contest. Without
question the answer is, properly caring for your body's lymph
system.
Having
spent the last 32 of my 57 years studying the effect of a clean
lymph system on our health, I can tell you with absolute certainty
that taking the simple steps necessary to optimize the efficiency
of the lymph system is the missing link we have been searching
for in our quest for health.
Anyone
seeking to improve his or her health, to overcome an existing
problem, to lose weight, to increase energy, to remove or prevent
pain, the fastest and easiest way to do it is to see to it that
your lymph system is cleaned out and functioning properly. Yet,
in what has to be the greatest irony ever, most of the people
reading this right now cannot describe what their own body's lymph
system is or what it does. Can you? And mark my words, the failure
to recognize the immense role the lymph system plays in our well-being
will go down as the most colossal blunder - the most astonishing
oversight - in the history of the health sciences.
I'm
sure you've heard one variation or another of the old adage, "'a
structure is only as strong as its foundation." If you build a
house, no matter how superior the building materials are, and
no matter how expertly those materials are assembled, if the foundation
is weak, the structure will crumble with the first big storm.
Same with your car. You can have the shiniest, most polished and
best looking car on the block, but if you fail to periodically
change the oil, it will break down on you right when you need
it the most. And if you think it's any different with your body,
you are sorely mistaken.
Ever
notice that all discussions like this always revolve around what
should or should not be put in to the body? Rarely, if ever, does
the discussion focus on what should come out.
Simply
put, the human body is always generating wastes that are toxic
in nature and must be removed as swiftly and efficiently as possible
or health will be compromised. These toxins are generated from
two sources. First, every day hundreds of billions of cells in
your body die off and they are highly toxic. Secondly, toxins
are built up from the residue of the approximately 70 tons of
food that is eaten in a lifetime. There is a never-ending ebb
and flow of toxins in your body, and problems will only arise
- anything from pain to catastrophic disease - when more of these
toxins are produced than are eliminated. Trying to build a healthy,
fit body without regularly removing these naturally occurring
toxins is akin to trying to build a brick wall on quicksand.
The
incomparable intelligence that governs the human body is beyond
our comprehension. After all, it knows how to turn an apple into
blood, bone, teeth, skin, hair, organs, anything. Wow! All the
scientists on Earth combined can't do that. And it is that unparalleled
intelligence that directs the activities of the one mechanism
in your body whose sole job and function is to keep you alive
and well by removing toxins and wastes. That is why the lymph
system is commonly referred to as the "body's garbage collector."
The
lymph system, which is the heart and soul of the immune system,
is an astounding network of fluid, nodes and nodules, organs,
ducts, glands and vessels, containing three times more fluid than
the body contains blood.
