Medical Monday: The Lymphatic System

According to Live Science: “The lymphatic system is a network of tissues and organs that help rid the body of toxins, waste and other unwanted materials. The primary function of the lymphatic system is to transport lymph, a fluid containing infection-fighting white blood cells, throughout the body.”

The lymphatic system, which is an important part of the immune system” is comprised of the following: Tonsils, thymus gland, spleen, lymph nodes, and lymphatic vessels.
