what...? Do you not know any biology at all? Of course the lymphatic system is meant to eliminate toxins... Jeez, take some bio 101 before posting, you sound like a quack



They are taking issue with the term "toxin" - not the functionality of the lymphatic system. Their comment explicitly said `metabolic byproduct or waste, nothing to do with "toxins"`.


But of course it the lymphatic system eliminates toxins too. I mean, obviously this is all getting into semantics, but the lymphatic system helps to eliminate more than just metabolic products and waste, it will also help eliminate dead bacteria, heavy metals, etc, which could certainly be called toxins
