"Sport is the great stand-by for modern society. It is used as
illhealth prevention and to improve health, but also to protect teenagers
from the dangers of excessive free time especially on the streets; to breathe
life, via self esteem, into those who are hanging back in the marathon
of life; to supply money adlib to the television magnates; to sublimate
old rivalries between groups, both ethnic and national; to complement and
complete slimming diets; and even to inspire fantastic stories in the seventh
art, that has found a never ending source of scripts......"
That is how the main article of the latest number of Salut i Força
starts, and analyses, with the collaboration of Dr. Bartomeu Marí
and the director of Mega Sport, Kim Forteza, the key points to be born
in mind when carrying out a particular sport.
In the digital edition of the magazine, www.salut.org, we can find other
interesting articles that cover different topics, such as drug addiction,
bronchiolitis, secondary effects of impoverished uranium projectiles and
obesity in menopause. There is also an interview with the economist
Miquel Alenyà, of the Social and Cultural Works of Sa Nostra.
