Easy Ways To Boost Your Immune Health Fast

Lymphatic system health is the foundation of good immune response. Your lymphatic system acts like a secondary circulatory system. This flushes waste products from cells and tissues and then carries them to organs of elimination. The valves of the lymph system depend on breathing and muscle movement to drive them.

That is why exercise improves lymphatic circulation so it can remove waste materials that block immune response. The health of your lymphatic system largely depends on the health of your liver. A sluggish liver invariably means a sluggish lymph system.

Some examples of a sluggish lymphatic system are:

  • You get frequent colds and flu.
  • Feeling sluggish, poor memory and low energy?
  • Eating a diet high in refined carbs and saturated fats?
  • Leading a sluggish life?
  • Using aluminum cookware which stresses the lymph system?

Here are some LYMPH healing protocols:

-Boost nutrients. Protein and B12 deficiency especially effect lymphatic efficiency.

Make a lymph builder drink:  1 handful of parsley, 1 garlic clove, 5 carrots and 3 celery stalks.. add two tsps of green super-food like spirulina, Kyo- Green. Eat lymph boosting veggies like cabbage, kale, bell peppers, collards or these fruits:apple, pineapple, berries, and grapes.
