Crash Course on the Lymphatic System and Immune System. What Is the Lymphatic System? How It Works & Why It Matters
The lymphatic system is a vital part of the body’s immune and detoxification network. It consists of lymph nodes, vessels, and organs like the spleen and thymus, working together to remove waste, toxins, and excess fluids from tissues. Unlike the circulatory system, it doesn’t have a pump—movement and muscle contractions help lymph fluid flow.
