Ake sifunde kabanzi ngalesi sivikelo esithule emzimbeni wethu - i-Lymphatic System.

Wake wazibuza ukuthi kukhona yini uhlelo olumangalisayo ngaphakathi emizimbeni yethu olusebenza njengemfihlo? Lolu uhlelo lwe-lymphatic esizokhuluma ngalo namuhla. Lufana nesivikelo esikhulu emzimbeni wethu, futhi lusebenza njengomhlanzi onekhono. Ake sibone ukuthi lokhu kwenzani ngempela, futhi kubaluleke kangakanani?

Iyini le ndlela yokwelapha i-lymphatic?

Kalula nje, uhlelo lwe-lymphatic luyingxenye ebaluleke kakhulu yesimiso sethu sokuzivikela komzimba. Uyazi, uhlelo lokuzivikela komzimba lufana namasosha asemzimbeni wethu, lawo alwela ukusisindisa ezifweni. Ngakho uhlelo lwe-lymphatic lusiza kakhulu kulowo mlo.

Lolu hlelo lunemisebenzi emibili eyinhloko:

1. Ukulawula nokulinganisela amazinga oketshezi emzimbeni wethu ngendlela efanele.

2. Ukuzivikela ngokulwa namagciwane kanye nezifo ezingena emzimbeni.

Cabanga nje, lonke lolu hlelo lwakhiwe inethiwekhi yamapayipi amancane (iziteshi) asakazeke emizimbeni yethu, anamaqhubu amancane lapha nalaphaya, kanye nezinye izitho ezimbalwa ezikhethekile. Konke lokhu kusebenza ndawonye 'ukujikeleza' nokuthwala uketshezi olufana namanzi olubizwa ngokuthi 'i-Lymph'' emzimbeni wonke, kanye nokuhlanza (ukulihlunga).

Manje ake sibone ukuthi obani abadlali abaphambili kulolu hlelo:

• Imithambo ye-lymphatic: Lawa amapayipi amancane asebenza njengenethiwekhi emzimbeni wonke. Afana nemithambo yethu yegazi, kodwa athwala uketshezi lwe-lymph. Lawa ayahlangana ukuze akhe imithambo ye-lymph emikhulu, ekugcineni ekhipha uketshezi lwe-lymph egazini.
• Ama-lymph node: Lawa amaqhubu amancane, angangobhontshisi. Unawo ezinhlangothini zombili zentamo yakho, ngaphansi kwamakhwapha akho, nasesinqeni sakho. Asebenza njengezihlungi zokubamba amagciwane namaseli aphukile. Uma unomkhuhlane noma umkhuhlane, intamo yakho izizwa ivuvukele ngoba ama-lymph node alwa namagciwane.
• Ubende: Lesi yisitho esikhulu kunazo zonke ohlelweni lwe-lymphatic. Sitholakala ohlangothini olungaphezulu kwesobunxele lwesisu. Sihlanza igazi, sisuse amangqamuzana abomvu amadala egazi, futhi sigcine amangqamuzana omzimba (ikakhulukazi ama-lymphocyte).
• I-Thymus gland: Lokhu kutholakala phakathi kwesifuba, ngemuva nje kwethambo lesifuba (sternum). Kukhulu uma sisebancane, kodwa kuyancipha njengoba sikhula. I-thymus gland yilapho ama-T-lymphocyte, uhlobo olubaluleke kakhulu lweseli lokuzivikela komzimba, evuthwa khona.
• Ama-Tonsils nama-Adenoids: Lawa amaqoqo ezicubu ze-lymphoid ezitholakala kuzo zombili izinhlangothi zomphimbo (ama-tonsils) kanye nangemuva kwekhala (ama-adenoids). Asebenza njengabalindi ukuze abambe amagciwane angena emzimbeni ngomlomo nangekhala.

Iyiphi inkonzo enikezwa uhlelo lwe-lymphatic emizimbeni yethu?

Manje ake sibone ukuthi lolu hlelo lwe-lymphatic lunikeza uhlobo luni lwenkonzo emizimbeni yethu. Lwenza umsebenzi ofana nenkonzo yethu yokulahla udoti kamasipala, kodwa luyinkimbinkimbi kakhulu futhi lubalulekile empilweni.

Umsebenzi oyinhloko: ukususa uketshezi oluningi

Lona umsebenzi oyinhloko nobaluleke kakhulu wesistimu ye-lymphatic. Yilapha lapho uketshezi lwe-lymph oluqongelela ezicutshini zomzimba wethu lubuyiselwa egazini.

Lolu ketshezi lwe-lymph `(Lymph)` aluwona nje amanzi. Luwuketshezi olucacile, ngezinye izikhathi oluphuzi. Luqukethe:

• Ama-lymphocyte: Lawa uhlobo lwamaseli amhlophe egazi. Afana namasosha aqeqeshwe emizimbeni yethu. Yiwo alwa nezitha ezifana namagciwane namaseli omdlavuza.
• I-Chyle: Lokhu kuyisithako esikhethekile. Sakhiwe ngamafutha namavithamini ancibilikayo atholakala emathunjini ethu (ikakhulukazi emathunjini amancane). Sinombala omhlophe njengobisi. Le chyle ingena egazini ngohlelo lwe-lymphatic.
• Futhi, lolu ketshezi lwe-lymph lungase luqukathe amaprotheni, imikhiqizo engcolile, futhi ngezinye izikhathi amabhaktheriya namagciwane akhishwa ezicutshini.

Ngakho-ke lolu hlelo luqoqa kahle lolu ketshezi lwe-lymph, luluhlanze kuma-lymph node, bese lulubuyisela egazini.

Kungani kubaluleke kangaka ukususa lolu ketshezi?

Ungase ucabange, 'Kungani kuyinto enkulu kangaka ukususa lolu ketshezi?' Cabanga ngale ndlela... Sinemithambo yegazi emincane emizimbeni yethu, ebizwa ngokuthi ama-capillary. Izindonga zala ma-capillary zincane kakhulu. Ngakho-ke izinto ezifana namanzi, umoya-mpilo, kanye nezakhamzimba zihlala zivuza kuzo ziye ezicutshini ezizungezile. Lokho kuhle, ngoba izicubu ziyakudinga ukuze ziphile. Ngesikhathi esifanayo, imfucuza kanye ne-carbon dioxide evela ezicutshini kubuyela kulezi zicutshi.

Kodwa-ke, ingxenye encane yalolu ketshezi oluvuzayo ayibuyeli ngqo ema-capillary. Ihlala phakathi kwezicubu.

Uma uhlelo lwe-lymphatic lungasebenzi kahle, lolu ketshezi olwengeziwe luyanqwabelana ezicutshini zethu futhi lubangele ukuthi zivuvuke. Kufana namanzi agcwalisa isikhala lapho engakwazi ukuphuma khona. Lesi simo sibizwa ngokuthi i-lymphedema.

Yingakho uhlelo lwe-lymphatic lusebenza njengohlelo lokukhipha amanzi , lususa amanzi namaprotheni angaphezulu, luwahlanze, futhi luwabuyisele egazini. Yileyo ndlela umzimba wethu ogcina ngayo ibhalansi yawo yoketshezi, ngaphandle kokubangela ukuvuvukala okungadingekile.

Ingabe ikhona eminye imisebenzi ebalulekile yesistimu ye-lymphatic?

Yebo, impela! Ngaphezu kokususa lolo ketshezi oluthe xaxa, uhlelo lwe-lymphatic lwenza eminye imisebenzi eminingana ebaluleke kakhulu.

• Ukulwa namagciwane:

Ngishilo ngaphambilini ukuthi uketshezi lwe-lymph luqukethe uhlobo olukhethekile lweseli elimhlophe legazi elibizwa ngokuthi ama-lymphocyte. Lawa ngamaseli alwa ngqo namagciwane afana namagciwane, amagciwane, kanye nesikhunta angena emizimbeni yethu. Ama-lymph node afana neziteshi zamaphoyisa. Njengoba uketshezi lwe-lymph ludlula kula ma-node, ama-lymph cell lapho abamba futhi abhubhise la magciwane. Akukhona lokho kuphela, kodwa la ma-lymph node nawo asiza ekumiseni ukusabalala kwamanye amangqamuzana omdlavuza.

• Ukumuncwa nokuthuthwa kwamafutha:

Amafutha ekudleni esikudlayo, ikakhulukazi ngemva kokuba emuncwe emathunjini ethu amancane, awangeni ngqo egazini. Lawo mafutha aqala angene ohlelweni lwe-lymphatic. Kunemithambo ekhethekile ye-lymphatic ebizwa ngokuthi 'ama-lacteal'. Lawa yiwo amunca la mafutha, awaguqule abe yinto efana nobisi ebizwa ngokuthi 'i-chyle', bese ewafaka kancane kancane ohlelweni lwegazi. Lena inqubo ebaluleke kakhulu yamandla emizimba yethu kanye nokumunca amavithamini ancibilikayo emafutheni (amavithamini ancibilikayo emafutheni A, D, E, K).

Kwenzekani uma uhlelo lwe-lymphatic luba buthakathaka noma luvimbekile?

Cabanga ukuthi kwenzekani uma ipayipi lamanzi endlini yethu livalekile. Amanzi agcwala endaweni eyodwa, futhi mhlawumbe aze avuza, akunjalo? Yilokho okwenzekayo lapho kukhona okungahambi kahle ohlelweni lwe-lymphatic.

• I-Lymphedema: Lena yinkinga eyinhloko. Uma iziteshi ze-lymphatic zivinjiwe noma zingasebenzi kahle, njengoba ngishilo ekuqaleni, uketshezi olwengeziwe luyaqoqana ezicutshini futhi lubangele ukuvuvukala kwezitho zomzimba, ikakhulukazi imilenze. Ngezinye izikhathi lokhu kuvuvukala kungaba kukhulu ngendlela engavamile. Kungaba nezizathu eziningana zalokhu. Abanye abantu bazalwa nale nkinga, kanti abanye bayithuthukisa ngemva kokuhlinzwa (ikakhulukazi lapho ama-lymph node esuswa ngesikhathi sokuhlinzwa komdlavuza), ngemva kokwelashwa ngemisebe yomdlavuza, noma ngenxa yokutheleleka okukhulu. Isibonelo, yilokhu okwenzekayo ku-filariasis, lapho i-parasite ivimba iziteshi ze-lymphatic.

• Kulula ukungenwa yizifo:

Uma uhlelo lwe-lymphatic lungasebenzi kahle, amaseli e-lymph alwa namagciwane (ama-Lymphocyte) awakwazi ukwenza umsebenzi wawo kahle. Ama-lymph node awakwazi ukuhlunga amagciwane. Khona-ke amasosha omzimba ayancishiswa, futhi amathuba okugula kaningi nokuthola izifo aphezulu. Ngisho nesilonda esincane esikhumbeni singaba ukutheleleka okukhulu.

• Ezinye izinkinga:

Ngezinye izikhathi, izimo ezingathi sína kakhulu njenge-lymphoma, umdlavuza wesistimu ye-lymphatic, zingavela. Yingakho kubalulekile ukunakekela lolu hlelo. Uma unezimpawu ezifana nokuvuvukala okuqhubekayo noma ama-lymph node avuvukele angachazeki, kungcono ukufuna iseluleko sezokwelapha.

Ngakho-ke yini okufanele siyenze ukuze sigcine lolu hlelo lwe-lymphatic luphilile?

Lona umbuzo obaluleke kakhulu. Kunezinto ezilula esingazenza ukuze sigcine lesi sisebenzi esithule emzimbeni wethu siphilile. Ngokulandela lokhu, singakhulisa ukusebenza kahle kohlelo lwe-lymphatic.

• Ukudla okuhle okunempilo:

Ukudla izithelo ezintsha, imifino (ikakhulukazi imifino eluhlaza), ukuphuza amanzi ahlanzekile amaningi, nokunciphisa amafutha amaningi, ushukela omningi, ushukela omningi, kanye nokudla okucutshunguliwe akugcini nje ngokuba kuhle ohlelweni lwe-lymphatic, kodwa futhi nakuwo wonke umzimba. Ukudla okucebile ngama-antioxidants (ikakhulukazi amajikijolo anjenge-blueberries, ama-strawberry, isipinashi, i-broccoli, notamatisi) kungasiza ekunciphiseni umonakalo kumaseli ohlelweni lwe-lymphatic futhi kusize ukulugcina luphilile.

• Ukuzivocavoca njalo:

Uma sizivocavoca, imisipha yethu iyavuselelwa. Uma le misipha ifinyela futhi iphumula, isiza ukwelula iziteshi ze-lymph nokuhambisa uketshezi lwe-lymph. Kufana nephampu yamanzi. Kuhle ukwenza okuthile okufana nokuhamba, ukugijima, ukubhukuda, noma ukugibela ibhayisikili okungenani imizuzu engama-30 ngosuku. Futhi, ezinye zezindlela zokuzivocavoca ze-yoga zilungele ukunyakaza kwe-lymph.

• Ukuphuza amanzi anele:

I-lymph cishe ingama-90% amanzi. Ngakho-ke uma amazinga amanzi emzimbeni wakho ehla, i-lymph yakho ingaba nkulu futhi kube nzima ukuyinyakazisa. Ngakho khumbula ukuphuza okungenani amalitha angu-2-3 (izingilazi ezingu-8-12) zamanzi ngosuku.

• Ukuvikelwa ezifweni:

Gwema ukulimala kanye nemihuzuko ngangokunokwenzeka, njengoba ezinye izifo zingalimaza uhlelo lwe-lymphatic. Ngisho noma inxeba lincane, ligeze ngokushesha ngensipho bese ulihlanza, bese ufaka umuthi wokubulala amagciwane uma kudingeka.

• Gwema izingubo eziqinile:

Ukugqoka izingubo zangaphansi eziqinile, amabhulukwe, kanye namasokisi, ikakhulukazi lawo anebhande elinwebekayo, kungabangela ukungakhululeki futhi kuvimbele ukunyakaza. Ngakho zama ukugqoka izingubo ezikhululekile nezikhululekile.
