The 'Salut a punt' program, broadcast every Sunday from Burjassot, this week offers advice on laser hair removal, the benefits of olive oil, and the reality of Alzheimer's, aiming to improve health and quality of life.

This week, the Salut a punt program, produced in Burjassot, focuses on various aspects of health and well-being. One of the main topics is laser hair removal, addressing frequently asked questions about the appropriate time to perform it and the necessary precautions, always from a medical perspective.
Another pillar of the program is olive oil, considered fundamental in the Mediterranean diet. Julia Milà, a dietitian-nutritionist and member of the Official College of Dietitians-Nutritionists of the Valencian Community, will highlight the importance of this food for cardiovascular health and general well-being, going beyond its culinary use.

"Olive oil is much more than an ingredient: it is health, tradition, and quality of life."

Furthermore, Josep Àngel Ponsoda's program delves into the complex reality of Alzheimer's, a disease that impacts not only the patient but also their social and family environment. Javier Pita, a nurse who collaborates with neurologists, will share his experience accompanying patients and caregivers in managing this condition that affects memory and personal identity.
Finally, Salut a punt will visit a rural pharmacy in Vilafranca to learn about its essential role in small communities, where trust is key. Danzaterapia will also be explored as a technique to help people with chronic diseases manage pain, offering a comprehensive view of different approaches to improving quality of life.
