I get more questions these days about lymphatic health\u2014particularly lymphedema. Sometimes it\u2019s an issue related to a reader\u2019s cancer recovery or a co-occurring symptom seen with a loved one\u2019s other health concerns. While I might take up specific conditions in future posts (let me know if you have suggestions there), I thought I\u2019d spend today taking apart the basics of lymphatic health. As with many of the body\u2019s core operating functions, the real story often gets camouflaged within vague, consumer-based terms that end up being only medically tangential. Consider today\u2019s post a trip into the weeds and (maybe) the beginning of an ongoing conversation on the topic.
