PUFFINESS. SAGGINESS ⠀ Skin has nothing to do with it, something else is to blame: its lymph. Do you know what it is? ⠀ In simple words: we have 2 main liquids in our body- blood and lymph. ⠀ DIFFERENCE N1 ⬆️ Blood "delivers food" to our skin (not only skin, of course); ⬇️ Lymph gets all "rubbish" away. ⠀ DIFFERENCE N2 ♻️ Blood runs in circles; 💧 Lymph.. Imagine a lake of lymph near your heart. 1st "river" of lymph flows from your left leg up to this lake; 2nd river flows from another leg; 3rd from one arm; 4th from the second arm; 5th river flows from our head and Face down into this lake. ⠀ DIFFERENCE N3 ❤️ Blood has a pump (our heart) which pushes it through; 🏃♀️ Lymph does not have any pump at all, it only moves when we contract our muscles (this is why it is recommended to have an active lifestyle; otherwise lymph will really "struggle" to move, especially up our legs). ⠀ It is obvious that lymph finds it harder to move. If there is any obstacle on its way- its even more challenging! ⠀ And if lymph gets stuck somewhere, it will lead to.. What?
