Cancer
Summary

The overall survival rate of people with metastatic cancer has only improved about 5% in 50 years, with the majority of improvements coming from specific types of cancer that are sensitive to certain chemotherapies. Therefore, curing cancer, at least for the majority of types, still remains a challenge.

Posture
Summary

The podcast discusses how incorrect breathing, specifically not breathing correctly into the abdomen, can lead to a posture with ribs flared up, pelvis tilted forward, and long and tight muscles. This posture causes the body's center of mass to shift forward, leading to tightened erector spinae muscles.
