If you are having problems with your heart, or ischemia, then you need to know how the lymphatic system plays a major role in maintaining the tissues of the heart. Ischemia is a medical term for a restriction in blood supply that can damage tissue and organs. There are many tiny vessels of the lymphatic system on the exterior of the heart, also in the heart muscle itself. Even blood vessels have a lymphatic system on its exterior vessel and in the vessel itself. When the lymphatic system is working optimally it is reabsorbing and removing, from the tissues or organs, excess fluid and cellular waste. This cellular waste is lactic acid and large proteins (insoluble parts of damaged cells and fibrin) that are too large to enter the veins.

Hundreds of millions of people around the world are having a hard time breathing from asthma, bronchitis, emphysema, COPD and lung cancer. It is estimated that 300 million people worldwide have asthma. Some infants are even born with cystic fibrosis, fluid filled cysts in their lungs which limit their ability to breathe. Why are we having so many lung problems, even beginning in the womb? There are many contributing factors to breathing problems from smoking, pollution and toxic chemicals. Very rarely do you think of the foods you eat or beverages that you drink as a contributing factor to why you are having a problem with your lungs.
