Pharmacist Oana Pop recently held a webinar where she presented various methods for detoxifying the organs and main systems of the body.
Among these is the lymph, which plays a crucial role in immunity and more.
The Importance of Maintaining Clean Blood
Blood plays a vital role in the body, which is why it requires periodic detoxification. However, before cleansing the blood, it is important to cleanse the colon and liver.
Rehabilitating the function of these organs will bring a notable improvement in the health of the respiratory system.
When the detoxifying organs are clean and functioning optimally, the blood will also be purified. It will flow optimally and reach all necessary areas of the body for oxygenation and nourishment.
Toxins that accumulate in the blood and are not properly eliminated can reach other places in the body.
To rid itself of this excessive accumulation of toxins, the blood will send them to organs such as the liver, joints, and skin.
Blood must be maintained qualitatively and quantitatively within fairly stable parameters. If blood becomes poisoned with an excessive amount of toxins, we can die.
Cleaning the Lymphatic System
Similarly, the lymph must also be cleansed. Detoxifying the circulatory system involves a deep cleansing of both the blood and the lymph.
The lymphatic system acts as a helper to the blood. It functions as a filter for toxins, microbes, and dead cells from the blood. If the lymphatic system does not function well, the body will not be able to remain clean.
Signs That the Lymph Is Not Functioning Well
The lymph is hindered by a large amount of toxins. The lymphatic system can practically become blocked due to the intake of unhealthy foods, alcohol, medications, pesticides, heavy metals, bacteria, or viruses.
Oana Pop states that 99% of diseases originate in the lymph. By detoxifying the lymph, cancers can be prevented.
Here are some signs of an affected lymphatic system:
– swelling of the limbs
– feeling of heavy legs
– weight gain
– water retention in the body
– cellulite, dark skin
– decreased immunity
– frequent infections
– swollen lymph nodes
