Lymphoma is a type of cancer that originate in the lymphatic system. The lymphatic system is part of the body’s immune system and includes the lymph nodes, spleen, thymus, bone marrow, and lymphatic vessels. Its main role is to fight infections and maintain optimal fluid balance in the body.
In lymphoma, certain white blood cells (lymphocytes) grow and multiply abnormally, forming tumours in lymph nodes or other parts of the body.
Types of Lymphoma:
1) Hodgkin Lymphoma (HL)
The presence of Reed-Sternberg cells sets it apart.
Hodgkin lymphoma usually spreads from one group of lymph nodes to another in a predictable, systematic manner.
This condition has a high likelihood of successful treatment and is frequently diagnosed early.
2) Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma (NHL)
It includes several subtypes, such as follicular lymphoma and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL).
The lymphoma can be either aggressive, meaning it grows quickly, or indolent, meaning it grows slowly.
Concept of Immunity in Ayurveda
Immunity is the body’s natural defence mechanism and a protective shield that helps us to defend against harmful bacteria, viruses, fungi, parasites, and even abnormal or cancerous cells. Immune system is complex and dynamic system that constantly monitors the body, and further identify and neutralize the dangers mentioned above. This remarkable defense mechanism involves a network of cells, tissues, and organs working together to prevent illness, promote healing, and maintain overall well-being. A strong immune system is therefore essential for protection from everyday infections as well as more serious diseases like cancers.
In Ayurveda, immunity is described as “Vyadhikshamatva”, which means the body’s natural power to resist diseases and infections. Vyadhikshamatva is not just about fighting pathogens but also helps to maintain optimal balance between mind, body, and spirit. A strong immune system can effectively identify and neutralize cancer cells. This is explained by increased incidence of various types of cancer in individuals suffering from HIV or on immuno-suppressive drugs.
