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.
Lymph is collected within lymphatic vessels, which carry it away from your tissues and eventually return it to your bloodstream. Lymph helps clear your body of cellular wastes and infectious organisms. Chyle, a specialized version of lymph, transports fats from your intestine to your bloodstream.
