The Truth About Cancer<br />

system falters. And those are <strong>the</strong> little soldiers that are facing <strong>the</strong>se<br />

pathogens, <strong>the</strong>se bacteria, <strong>the</strong>se antigens, toxins even as <strong>the</strong>y pass<br />

through <strong>the</strong> lymphatic system and sort of as a—kind of like your oil filter,<br />

I guess, <strong>the</strong>y’re filtering out some of <strong>the</strong> nasty stuff. So <strong>the</strong> reason<br />

jumping on a trampoline is useful is because your lymphatic system<br />

unlike o<strong>the</strong>r parts like your muscles or your heart or your skeletal<br />

muscle, it doesn’t have it’s own muscle. It doesn’t have a muscle<br />

wrapped around it like arteries have muscle around <strong>the</strong>m. it’s called <strong>the</strong><br />

tunica, tunica media. it’s what helps vascular changes. You can actually<br />

change <strong>the</strong> pressure by those muscles clamping down or letting go.<br />

Well, <strong>the</strong> lymphatic system doesn’t have that ability. And so it depends<br />

on <strong>the</strong> skeletal muscles for that return. So by compressing your thighs,<br />

by just simply walking you’re actually pushing lymph through your body.<br />

it’s sort of passively pushed through by <strong>the</strong> o<strong>the</strong>r muscles in your body.<br />

And so by hopping on a trampoline you’re basically forcing those<br />

muscles to contract and you’re helping that drainage instead of having it<br />

collect in your ankles like you see people with swollen ankles, you’re<br />

helping some of that return. And that’s why when people start having<br />

problems with blood pressure and <strong>the</strong>ir heart <strong>the</strong>y sometimes will get<br />

swollen ankles because that big pressure differential is pushing all that<br />

fluid out into <strong>the</strong>ir interstitial tissues and <strong>the</strong>ir lymph system can’t keep<br />

up especially if <strong>the</strong>y’re sedentary. If <strong>the</strong>y’re sitting around, <strong>the</strong>y’re sick,<br />

<strong>the</strong>y’re hurt, <strong>the</strong>y have cardio—<strong>the</strong>y have congestive heart failure and<br />

<strong>the</strong>ir heart has poor return so <strong>the</strong>y get dizzy quickly. They’re not going to<br />

be able to get up and walk around to help push that lymph back into<br />

<strong>the</strong>ir venous system. And so a healthy person can just constantly<br />

contract <strong>the</strong>ir muscles and keep that going. It also prevents you from<br />

that constant activity is what also helps you from getting deep vein<br />
