The Lymphatic System

A Secondary or Primary Circulation System?

The main perception of the lymphatic system so far has been one of little significance and almost negligence by mainstream medicine. This conclusion can be drawn from a number of sources: limited information during medical education, a small number of medical scientific studies regarding exclusively the lymphatic system, very few diagnostic procedures regarding the lymphatic system, therapeutic procedures almost totally avoiding the lymph and the lymphatic vessels. While it is widely recognized and accepted that the lymphatic system poses a major factor in the physiology of the human body, little is been done in terms of exploring or harnessing that importance for therapeutic purposes. If we analyze the number of studies where lymph turns out as a keyword, almost all of them refer to the lymphatic system merely as a pathway for the dispersion of malignant cells throughout the body.
