The digestive system, which contains a large part of the microbiome, and a large portion of the mass of immune cells is hugely important in fighting infection.

They all do but the lymphocytes that do the actual attacking come from the lymph nodes.

BAEMTP, well, it's debatable, you could say the circulatory system is key, but white blood cells are at the heart of the immune response, so I think choosing the lymphatic system is fair enough.

LuckyJockey4436, That's what I originally thought was the correct answer, but ... I've heard many cases of people successfully fighting off Cancer, untill it gets into the lymphatic system, then they go down hill fast.

A healthy lymphatic system is so important to overall good health. Once a person gets one autoimmune disease, they become much more susceptible to others. I now have ulcerative colitis, diverticulitis, psoriatic arthritis and fibromyalgia. The last two in particular have been a rough road.

Lucky Jockey 4436 is correct. Digestive system is at least equally important as lymphatic system in fighting disease and infections. Bad question all around.

Nannad, check with the doc, swollen nodes for long is mostly TB infection. treatment is not that costly and absolutely curable.

unlike the blood, lymph has no pump, so you need to stay active to keep the lymph moving.

Terrible question. At least three of the answers “help fight diseases.”

I’m surprised by this answer because they have proven that it all starts in the digestive tract. I take probiotics too

Player BRAINY SMURF, I agree, it is a bit contentious as they all play a part, but the majority of people did think that the lymph system was the right answer.
