Insomnia is a problem that most people don't discuss in public. According to the United States Department of Health and Human Services, in the year 2007, approximately 64 million Americans had problems with insomnia.  This is a big misunderstood problem. If you were to ask those with insomnia why they aren't sleeping, many will tell you they are stressed.

Have you ever heard of Fatal Familial Insomnia? it has been diagnosed in a small group of families and it can be deadly. The few people who have the disease start off with typical insomnia, then the disease progresses to where they begin sleeping less and less until they begin having panic attacks, anxiety, hallucinations and become catatonic. One of the oldest individuals to succumb to the disease left his brain to science. Researchers found that prions, a soluble form of protein, became mutated and turned into an insoluble form of protein that built up in the thalamus of the brain. Insoluble means the protein cannot be dissolved or broken down by the body. The thalamus is two small structures on either side of the midline of the brain that are responsible for regulation of sleep.

I have witnessed many clients who had no insomnia, have insomnia for a night or two during a series of lymphatic activations. When you activate the lymphatic's you are cleaning the tissues of the body and brain. The excess acid waste and proteins liberated during the lymphatic activation first congested the body and brain creating their short bout of insomnia.

In LymphMan.com and in my book, An Undetected Acid-Alkaline Imbalance, I explain how an overly acidic body constricts the lymphatic system allowing proteins and other waste to build in the body and brain. This accumulation of cellular waste is the Missed Root Cause of Disease. If you want to start sleeping, begin balancing your body and self-activating your lymphatic system to remove acid and excess proteins. You can help to remove proteins and improve your sleep and quality of life with the emerging science of the lymphatic system.
