Your Posture Can Predict Your Death

Medical researcher NAME in 2003 made the startling discovery that you can predict when a person is going to die based on how far their head pokes forward in poor posture. Essentially the further forward your head is, and the more rounded your shoudlers, the greater the stress on your heart and lungs and the higher the expectation that this will lead to life threatening illness.

Her findings were uncomplicated compared to most medical research and highlight how vital good posture is to allow you body to be healthy.
