Human lymph, obtained from thoracic duct



The lymph returning from your intestines is milky, owing to the presence of fatty acids absorbed from your diet. This mixture of fats and lymph is drained into a dilated sac - the cisterna chyli (meaning 'reservoir for chyle') - at the lower end of the thoracic duct. The thoracic duct then conveys the chyle to your bloodstream, where the fats it carries can be processed for energy or storage. you write a post, you can add it up to 3 different categories.
