Lymphatic system of our body has several functions like to drain interstitial fluid from tissue spaces, to develop immunities, to produce lymphocytes and to transport fats from gastrointestinal tract to blood.

In the villi of the small intestine, special lymphatics called lacteals pick up fats and transport them to the blood via thoracic duct (a lymphatic vessel).
