A human-rights based approach to cancer care is not a call for some idealistic health utopia. The concept of a right simply means that governments have obligations to enable non-discriminatory access to health services for those diagnosed with cancer.

Research has shown that stretching can reduce all-cause mortality. We now know stretching is key to slower aging and quality of life - all ages. Interesting: those who did flexibility exercises at least five times a week had a 20% lower risk of dying during the follow-up period
