Answer:
Poor posture places the body under unnecessary strain: our muscles have to work harder, our joints and ligaments suffer more wear and tear, and our circulation is affected too. A less than perfect posture can cause back and neck pain, as you might expect, but also things like headaches and digestive issues.
A hunched posture can affect our lung capacity too, and when our lungs aren’t performing at full capacity, the body’s tissues and organs including the heart and brain receive lesser amounts of oxygenated blood.
