The lymphatic system is part of the immune system where cleansing of blood, and the detoxification of our bodies takes place. A huge network of lymphatic vessels recycles blood plasma by removing fluid from the tissues, filtering it, and carrying it back into the bloodstream.
These are foods to add into your diet to boost the lymphatic system:
* Garlic
Garlic boosts immune function and combats harmful microbes. It improves circulation and aids in the cleansing of toxins. It boosts the function of your lymphatic system and contains antibacterial qualities.
* Citrus
Citrus fruits aid hydration, carry powerful antioxidants and enzymes, and help cleanse and protect the lymphatic system.
While Margaret and I were eating lunch at one of are favorite picnic areas (Nezperce Ford), I noticed this Bald Eagle across the Yellowstone River eating a fish. Before I could get all my gear out he flew off. Darn! Luckily, he didn't go far and landed on a snag just down river and posed for about 15 minutes while he let that fish settle.

We have a number of Astrantias around the garden and as well as being attractive flowers for us to look at, they are also favoured by many insects such as hoverflies and bees.
Astrantia is a genus of herbaceous plants in the family Apiaceae, endemic to Central, Eastern and Southern Europe and the Caucasus. There are 8 or 9 species, which have aromatic roots and palmate leaves. The genus name derived from the Latin 'aster' meaning star and this refers to the open star-shaped floral bracts of the plant.
The astrantia has many common garden names including melancholy gentleman, masterwort and Hattie's pincushion.
The stems and rhizomes of the Astrantia can be used for medicinal purposes. They provide an essential oil that can be used as a stomachic. The dried leaves of the plant can be used in herbal medicines as an infusion to help with digestion and help stimulate appetite. (wikipedia)
It catches its prey—chiefly insects and arachnids—with a trapping structure formed by the terminal portion of each of the plant's leaves, which is triggered by tiny hairs (called "trigger hairs" or "sensitive hairs") on their inner surfaces.Triggers may occur with a tenth of a second of contact. The plant will only begin digestion after five more stimuli to ensure it has caught a live bug worthy of consumption.The edges of the lobes are fringed by stiff hair-like protrusions or cilia, which mesh together and prevent large prey from escaping. The holes in the meshwork allow small prey to escape, presumably because the benefit that would be obtained from them would be less than the cost of digesting them. If the prey is too small and escapes, the trap will usually reopen within 12 hours. If the prey moves around in the trap, it tightens and digestion begins more quickly.
he Dionaea diet is 33% ants, 30% spiders, 10% beetles, and 10% grasshoppers, with fewer than 5% flying insects. Digestion takes about ten days, after which the prey is reduced to a husk .

This is something that a lot of flies do -the prevailing theory is that exposing their stomach contents to the air aids in digestion.
Treehopper : any of approximately 3,200 species of insects (order Homoptera) that are easily recognized by their vertical face and grotesquely enlarged thorax, which may extend anteriorly over the head to form one or more spines and expands posteriorly over the body to form a hoodlike covering. They are sometimes called insect brownies because of their elflike appearance. They range in colour from green and blue to bronze and are often marked with spots or stripes. Many treehoppers secrete honeydew, a sweet by-product of digestion. Most of these sap-sucking insects occur in the tropics.
a few of the many wildflowers seen by members of the Chantry Singers ( Saugeen Shores ) ...and the Edwin James Choir, of Littlehampton, England on Wednesday this week...beginning with pitcher-plant...a carnivorous plant...always of interest for its feeding habits.
from Wikipedia :
"Pitcher plants are carnivorous plants whose prey-trapping mechanism features a deep cavity filled with liquid known as a pitfall trap. It has been widely assumed that the various sorts of pitfall trap evolved from rolled leaves, with selection pressure favouring more deeply cupped leaves over evolutionary time. However, some pitcher plant genera (such as Nepenthes) are placed within clades consisting mostly of flypaper traps: this indicates that this view may be too simplistic, and some pitchers may have evolved from the common ancestors of today's flypaper traps by loss of mucilage.
Foraging, flying or crawling insects such as flies are attracted to the cavity formed by the cupped leaf, often by visual lures such as anthocyanin pigments, and nectar bribes. The sides of the pitcher are slippery and may be grooved in such a way so as to ensure that the insects cannot climb out.
The small bodies of liquid contained within the pitcher traps are called phytotelmata. They drown the insect, and the body of it is gradually dissolved. This may occur by bacterial action (the bacteria being washed into the pitcher by rainfall) or by enzymes secreted by the plant itself. Furthermore, some pitcher plants contain mutualistic insect larvae, which feed on trapped prey, and whose excreta the plant absorbs.
Whatever the mechanism of digestion, the prey items are converted into a solution of amino acids, peptides, phosphates, ammonium and urea, from which the plant obtains its mineral nutrition (particularly nitrogen and phosphorus). Like all carnivorous plants, they grow in locations where the soil is too poor in minerals and/or too acidic for most plants to survive. "

Daisy fleabane, like other fleabane wildflowers, derives its common name from the superstition that dried clusters of these plants could be used to rid a dwelling of fleas. Although it cannot do that, it is however used as a diuretic and medicine for digestive ailments.
Seen and photographed at Elizabeth Gamble Gardens in Palo Alto, California.
The Gamble Garden is a non-profit organization. The historic two-and-a-half acre property includes the Gamble estate, a rose garden, cutting garden, formal herb garden, demonstration bed, wisteria garden, and an allée. Edwin Gamble, son of Procter & Gamble Co. co-founder James Gamble, built the estate and garden in 1902. Elizabeth Gamble, one of his four children, spent most of her life here and bequeathed the property to the city with the stipulation that she and her brother George could live there throughout their lives. George died in 1972 and Elizabeth died in 1981 at the age of 92.
“Negro, Você está doente?”
Preguntó Ze al verme vomitar una y otra vez. Habíamos acampado luego de transitar el cuarto día del camino; era nuestra última noche en las montañas y la dispepsia me tenía a mal traer; mucha fiebre y vómitos; mi único deseo era abrigarme, encerrarme en la carpa y dormir muchas horas. Los cuatro mil metros de altura no me afectaron la capacidad aerórbica pero sí, la digestión, todo lo que ingería lo expulsaba.
Después de adentrarme en la tienda, mis compañeros salieron en busca de otra expedición, esta vez, cerca del camping; el objetivo era visitar una galería de hallazgos Inca contiguos a un centro arqueológico. Decidí quedarme a dormir, de lo contrario sería muy difícil emprender camino al otro día.
Al cabo de unos minutos veo el cierre de la carpa entreabierto, me incliné para cerrarlo completamente y observé un resplandor proveniente de las montañas, los rayos del sol se colaban entre los pesados nubarrones, giré mi cabeza para llegar su punto de fuga y de repente, se planta frente a mi esta imagen; probablemente el cuadro natural más puro y conmovedor que haya visto alguna vez.
Saqué decididamente la cámara de la mochila, le monté uno de los lentes, ajusté los controles y disparé. Fueron diez minutos sin fiebre, sin malestar estomacal, sin deficiencias físicas; diez minutos con mi alma en otro lugar; en algún lugar sobre el arco iris.
Llorar a chorros, llorar la digestión, llorar el sueño, llorar ante las puertas y los puertos, llorar de amabilidad y de amarillo.
Abrir las canillas, las compuertas del llanto.
Empaparnos el alma, la camiseta.
Inundar las veredas y los paseos y salvarnos, a nado, de nuestro llanto.
Asistir a los cursos de antropología, llorando.
Festejar los cumpleaños familiares, llorando.
Atravesar el África, llorando.
Llorar como un cacuy, como un cocodrilo... si es verdad que los cacuyes y los cocodrilos no dejan nunca de llorar.
Llorarlo todo, pero llorarlo bien.
Llorarlo con la nariz, con las rodillas.
Llorarlo por el ombligo, por la boca.
Llorar de amor, de hastío, de alegría.
Llorar de frac, de flato, de flacura.
Llorar improvisando, de memoria.
¡Llorar todo el insomnio y todo el día!

Ambas igualmente peligrosas, pero en este caso el araña tuvo las de ganar, y levanta al avispa como un trofeo, mientras se alimenta de ella.
La cola del avispa ya se ve hueca, es que el araña ha inyectado en ella sus enzimas digestivas y luego ha succionado el caldo resultante.
Las arañas, no tienen mandíbulas, solo quelíceros y por ende no pueden devorar ningún alimento sólido. Su técnica alimentaria consiste en inyectar las enzimas que hacen la digestión al interior del animal. Estas actúan como un veneno, ya que literalmente hacen líquido el interior para que el araña pueda beber el caldo nutritivo resultante.
Una de las variantes de la vida, tan diversa, tan creativa, y por sobre todo...tan sorprendente.

[Zelus Fabricius 1803: 82 (IT: 1) spp]
[Ctenolepisma Escherich 1905: 100 (IT: 4) spp]
Some Zelus spp have been investigated for their potential as biocontrol agents in integrated pest management. Zelus is also known for a sticky trap predation strategy, somewhat analogous to Drosera. Sticky resin produced from a leg gland is smeared on hairs to aid in prey capture.

I’ve figured out how those ladies of yore maintained such trim figures: dresses with a fitted bodice and no stretch. There simply isn’t room for a piece of pie after dinner.
Dress, vintage. Belt, Banana Republic. Shoes, J Crew. Earrings, Target. Bag, Melie Bianco
Of course, there are those “lucky” ladies (like myself) who gain most of their weight below the waist. We can eat a piece of pie and a slice of cake and simply hide the evidence under a full skirt. (I just have to discretely unbutton the dress around my waist until digestion is complete.)
P.S. I suppose the title was a little misleading, but I'm assuming those similarly-named Facebook ads are also disappointing.
Burgos province is famous in gastronomy for:
Queso de Burgos, a white cheese which is soft and unctuous (because it is made with whey). Although originally made with sheep's milk, now cow's milk or mixtures are more common. Each comarca (rural district) produces a minor variation, and the major dairies produce an industrial product that is acceptable for people with sensitive digestion.
Burgos is blessed with a moderate climate and this fresh cheese was able to be conserved there without the need for curing of more than 10 days. With the improvement of aseptic industrial production processes this can be extended to about 30 days at a cool 6 °C. Its production reaches 35,000 tons annually.
Morcilla de Burgos, a pig's-blood sausage (black pudding), is a staple country food famous across the Iberian peninsula. Spiced with onions and herbs its most noticeable content is rice (often mistaken for fat) which makes it one of the lightest and healthiest products of its kind. Oral tradition says that it must be "salty, smooth and piquant" (see Spanish pages Burgos (desambiguación) (es) for details). As with the Queso de Burgos, several comarcas or towns in the province (Cardeñadijo, Sotopalacios, Aranda de Duero, Briviesca, Covarrubias, Villarcayo, Trespaderne, Miranda de Ebro...) made their own morcillas, with minor variations between them.
Even though Burgos is not on a D.O. wine is a fundamental piece in local gastronomy thanks to nearby wine cellars from Ribera de Duero, Rioja and Arlanza D.O.
How to Get Rid of An Ulcer? Stomach ulcers are sores located in the small intestine or stomach lining. Stomach ulcers are also called peptic ulcers. These ulcers occur when the mucus membrane that protects your gut from digestive juices starts thinning. According to experts, around four million
Algunos ciliados son unos voraces consumidores de algas y entre ellos son muy llamativos los que como Nassula o Chilodonella presentan una "faringe" formada por una serie de varillas paralelas como si se tratase de una canasta. Sirviéndose de esta estructura los ciliados succionan agua como si se tratase de una aspiradora y de este modo consiguen su alimento, constituido fundamentalmente por diatomeas. La imagen muestra un ciliado próximo a Chilodonella -del grupo Phyllopharyngea- en cuyo interior se aprecian dos vacuolas, una de ellas, la más pequeña, con una diatomea y la otra, mayor con varias, en pleno proceso de digestión. La fotografía realizada a 400 aumentos y empleando la técnica de contraste de interferencia ha sido tomada hoy en una muestra procedente de la fuente de Aguamanares en Murillo de río Leza en La Rioja. También en www.iesbatalladeclavijo.com/tablon/webvidaoculta/index.html y en www.fotolog.com/proyectoagua.
La suerte hizo posible capturar a esta araña en el momento en que, después de inmovilizar y dar muerte a su presa, inicia el proceso de su digestión externa, en el que segrega unas enzimas digestivas que introduce en su vientre para que, una vez éstas hayan actuado sobre el interior de la presa reduciéndolo a líquido, solo le reste absorber sus nutrientes.
I know that some birds swallow gravel and small stones to aid in digestion, but this is ridiculous! Maybe it's planning to build the ultimate nest!

Girar per boschi porta ad incontri a volte mozzafiato, nel senso letterale: che lasciano senza parole.
Magari si prova anche ad articolare qualcosa con i compagni di viaggio; solo la lenta digestione consente l'assimilazione dell'incontro.
L'iperbole tecnologica a cui siamo venduti consente di catturare e condividere l'immagine, cioè l'anima, di ciò che si vede
A costo di vendermi al 'nemico del genere umano', si sarebbe detto qualche tempo fa, presento qui una radice, probabilmente di faggio.
Non si fatica a scorgere il selvatico scultore all'opera nel rappresentare un corpo umano; e non può non colpire la particolare grazia nel definire i fianchi, l'inguine, il deliquio del corpo abbandonato ai sensi.
La mente si ricollega a sensazioni simili; corre veloce alla chiesa di Santa Maria della Vittoria, in via XX settembre a Roma, dove ho visto l'estasi di Santa Teresa d'Avila di Bernini, l'opera che l'autore ha definito essere stata 'la più bell'opera che uscisse dalla sua mano'.
Estasi.
Il collegamento mistico del corpo alla gioia.
Per cercar senso va citato il passo dell'autobiografia di Santa Teresa d'Avila nel descrivere la propria:
"Un giorno mi apparve un angelo
bello oltre ogni misura.
Vidi nella sua mano una lunga lancia
alla cui estremità sembrava esserci una punta di fuoco.
Questa parve colpirmi più volte nel cuore,
tanto da penetrare dentro di me.
II dolore era così reale che gemetti più volte ad alta voce,
però era tanto dolce
che non potevo desiderare di esserne liberata.
Nessuna gioia terrena può dare un simile appagamento.
Quando l'angelo estrasse la sua lancia,
rimasi con un grande amore per Dio."
Il paragone con qualcosa di meno prosaico dell'estasi mistica appare chiaro.
E' proprio a questo punto che si differenziano le letture.
Interpretare l'estasi mistica con 'nulla di più' dell'esperienza più o meno diretta dell'atto sessuale è semplicistico e non rende giustizia nè alla (fantastica, andatela a vedere; quella donna 'gode') scultura nè al passo dell'autobiografia.
Allo stesso modo interpretare questo stato della coscienza come qualcosa di più elevato della materialità animale è, a mio avviso, ugualmente fuorviante e ci porta verso le litanie adoranti vuote di contenuto.
Vedo entrambi i piani come il riflesso del Mistero che ci tiene in vita; non importa se si manifesti come selvatica animalità o estatica visione mistica: la radice (!) è la stessa.
Non ci va molto a buttarsi un poco oltre, a disossare queste esperienze dall'elemento tempo ed estrarne un senso che vada oltre al delimitato momento preciso dell'estasi o dell'atto sessuale, per espandersi in continuità per tutto il tempo del nostro vivere ed immergerci nel sacro quotidiano, nel trovare queste esperienze nella forma delle pagnotte, nel sorriso del formaggiaio o nel corpo caro delle persone vicine.
Oppure, in una radice trovata su un sentiero passeggiando con un amico.

This freshly caught fly, who was still furiously struggling, was stuck to the mucilage of the carnivorous sundew flower that will go on to consume it. This tells how it is done:
"Entrapment Mechanism
Glandular tentacles with sticky secretions covering their laminae, characterize the sundews.
The trapping mechanism uses the stalked glands secreting the sweet mucilage that serves the triple function of attracting the insect, ensnaring them and providing the enzymes to aid the digestion process. The sessile glands help to absorb the broken down nutrients.
The sweet secretions of the peduncular glands attract small prey that includes insects. Immediately on contact, the sticky mucilage entraps the prey and prevents its progress or escape. Finally, either exhaustion or asphyxiation causes the death of the prey in about 15 minutes as their spiracles clog on the mucilage.
Digestion
The enzymes protease, phosphatase, peroxidase and esterase, secreted by the plant dissolve the insect and liberate the nutrient soup that the leaf surfaces then absorb to help promote the plant growth."
