Sport is the best “medicine” that exists and now becomes a bench drug. That in a very lazy and very overweight country is the first step to start moving and changing life. The initiative is called “Movement Pills” and is the new European project to combat sedentary lifestyle among people of all ages. It works like this: one goes to the pharmacy asks for free a “movement pills” package and you can see a package completely similar to that of a medicine but inside there are no drugs but only a liar that entitles you to two months of free physical activity in different sports facilities and gyms. The initiative, sponsored by the Municipality of Milan and the Uisp, the Italian Union for all sports, was presented today at Palazzo Marino. And it is no coincidence that the date of March 4 is symbolic and coincides with the World Obesity Day. In the months of March and April you can therefore go to the pharmacy in one of the 12 cities that adhere to the project (Milan, Turin, Perugia, Bolzano, Agrigento, Ascoli Piceno, Foggia-Manfredonia, Grosseto, Reggio Emilia, Padua, Rimini) and ask for free a pack of movement pills. «In this original way and a little self-deprecating we will distribute 120 thousand packs of pills- he explains Tiziano PesceNational President UISP- A natural remedy to make the benefits of physical activity try for free to as many people who have never been able to practice it »The initiative turns to all people aged 18 and over and offers the opportunity to choose between a wide range of 105 sports activities, based on their preferences and needs.
