What Happens if You Have a Sluggish Lymphatic System?
Video Transcript:
Today, I want to talk to you about the importance of supporting your lymphatic system, and if you are wondering what this particular system is, it is one of the most important body systems that controls both your immune state as well as your detoxification process.
I specialize in the lymphatic system. I am a naturopathic physician and I’m also a certified lymphatic expert. I actually teach and train doctors and nurses, PTs, and other medical professions on supporting and enhancing the lymphatic health of their patients.
Symptoms Indicating Your Lymphatic System Needs Support
I’m really excited to share with you, today, some of the ways of understanding and acknowledging the sign of what we call a sluggish lymphatic system. These are going to be symptoms that you probably are not going to put together in kind of a circle of assessment, but are all factoring into the state of your lymphatic health.
Fatigue, weight gain, having poor vascular flow – sometimes in the legs, or noticing varicose veins and spider veins – experiencing cellulitis, or even cellulite on your legs. Cellulitis is a skin-oriented infection. It’s actually an infection, also, that compromises the lymphatic system, but cellulite is part of the detox process of storing excess toxins in the kind of fat cells. Usually, women, and some men, will experience it in and around the legs, the flank, the hips, and the butt.
Skin conditions like eczema and psoriasis, digestive disorders, upper GI GERD, and lower GI, like constipation, are going to be signs of poorly functioning lymphatic systems. Also, weakened immunity, so if you frequently get colds and flus and are sick frequently or have a longer recovery time, that’s going to identify that the lymphatic system is slow to respond to the foreign invader. Also, cataracts or the presence of cataract development is a sign of a poorly, sluggish-functioning lymphatic system.
How the Lymphatic System Works
Overall, your lymphatic system, it very much looks similar to your vascular system. We actually have a lot of the same kind of terminology to the lymphatic system; like we have lymphatic vessels, we have lymphatic capillaries, we have valves, and we have a pumping mechanism that is very different than the cardio, the heart, the vascular system.
In the cardiovascular system, your heart is the main pumping system. The main pump to the system and promotes that process of clean, oxygenated blood moving to organs and, then, relieving the organs and removing toxin debris. There is a connection to your vascular system into your lymphatic system. If you have any cardiovascular impairment – maybe heart disease or congestive heart failure – that will directly impact the function of your lymphatic system. And if you don’t exercise, that will affect your lymphatic system because part of the pumping mechanism comes from the blood flow and the pumping of your blood, but also the movement of your muscles.

Doctor-Recommended Ways to Promote Lymphatic Health
A few things that I love to recommend – exercising, gentle exercising, walking, good deep breathing exercises, and even jumping on a rebounder or a trampoline – are highly beneficial to promoting your lymphatic system. Getting a good sweat on is another way of promoting your lymphatic system.
In general, when individuals present with sluggish lymphatics, they also are going to have secondary- and tertiary-related conditions within the body. Sometimes that might be recurrent sinusitis or autoimmunity, or even just a sluggish digestive process. The best way to support your lymphatic system is to pump that system, get the blood flowing, and really, really enhance that process by hydrating well and taking supportive supplementation.

Take Control of Your Health
Lymphatically, generally speaking, most doctors are not even going to recognize or even diagnose a lymphatic disorder, and generally speaking, they learn about two sentences or maybe a half a paragraph, if you will, in their anatomy and physiology and that is it. Most clinicians that I teach and train that are working in the medical space in the hospitals or in their own clinics just don’t have a broad understanding of the lymphatic system. This is one of those systems and categories of wellness that we have to take the onus on ourselves to promote and to enhance.

I am interested in this product for my daughter… she is extremely overweight(close to 500 lbs) Her legs are very very large and her don’t even look like feet anymore. I fear for her life. She has lost 63 pounds, but has many many more to go.. she wears wraps on her legs and special shoes because she can’t put regular shoes on. She goes to lymphedema clinic once a month and they do a lymphatic massage. I do not believe that’s enough…. She’s only 34 years old. It just breaks my heart. i’m just wondering if this product would be an answer for her to get started getting her life back.
Does the masterclass start on
10/23 or is it available now? I struggle with constipation (I go at least once a day but I have to push to go) and I've had cellulite for years but I walk regularly, jump on my rebounder, and eat a pretty healthy diet. I also do weekly coffee enemas and castor oil packs every other day. I have an infrared sauna and yet I still seem to have sluggish lymph.
I have a problem with acid reflux. I also have a chronic cough that I have had for year. I have been told I have allergy induced asthma. Nothing the doctors give me help with my cough. Could this be a sign of the Lymphatic problems?
Hello Donna, We are sorry to hear of the health issues you are facing. Sending a healing prayer your way. Generally speaking, when lymph nodes are swollen or tender some people may experience a coughing. However, ask that you direct this question to your trusted doctor as they will have deeper insight into your specific cause. Wishing you the very best on your health journey. :)
