        The biochemical make up of lymph ie the fluid present in lymphatic vessel varies according to the site and origin. For instances lymph from bone marrow,spleen and thymus have high concentration of white blood cells which fight against infection, while lymph from intestine has high in fat. Any damage to the lymphatic and circulatory system makes the body more prone  to sickness and infection and may lead to serious condition like cancer.
