How movement increases our immunity

Role of Lymph Nodes in keeping us healthy

• Tissues put all their waste, dead cells, dead virus/bacteria in the blood.
• Lymph nodes act like a filter and collect all the waste.
• There are about 700-800 lymph nodes in our body, from foot upto the neck.
• These nodes drain into the big lymph node in the navel region which drains into the colon.
• The 2 fluid systems in our body
  • Blood, has a pump i.e. Heart
  • Lymph, no pump. Lymphatic fluid moves when we move.
• So movement is very important, if we don't move disease is unavoidable.

Exercise which drain the lymph nodes fastest

• Trampoline
• Padma Sadhna
• Light Yogasanas
• Surya Namaskara
• Running, Cycling doesn't do it so well in my experience

Lymph nodes keep the blood healthy and increase our immunity.
