Walking, like breathing is something we do every day and is easy to take for granted. That is until something happens that hinders this ability. And that is what happened to me.

When I became sick with the symptoms of multiple sclerosis, walking indeed became a challenge. Going from a person who could easily jog up a mountain to one who could barely walk 50 feet was not only physically draining, but mentally as well.

I remember the summer of 2003 when my only wish was to walk around a little lake in St. Paul, MN. At an average walking pace, it would take anyone all of 15 minutes to walk around the entire lake. For me, it was a very slow 2 hours, with many breaks every few feet. What I didn’t realize at the time was that any walking I could do, even at a snail’s pace, was actually the best thing I could do for myself!

Of all the symptoms of multiple sclerosis I experienced, the one that led me to a holistic detox was hypohidrosis – the diminished ability to sweat. (And for people who know me now, I am certainly not someone who only sweats a little bit – on the contrary!) Through my research, I learned that hypohidrosis, along with high levels of inflammation, are key indicators that the lymphatic system is overwhelmed. This meant that I needed to make some serious lifestyle changes if I wanted to turn my health around.

Anyone who is in a disease state has high levels of inflammation within their body, and this can be very taxing on the lymphatic system.
