Sal y salud. Poblaciones y territorios
2020
ABSTRACT:The connection between human health and environment has recently acquired special relevance. Since antique times, first civilizations already studied environmental conditionants in order to chose the optimal place for settlements and cities. This traditional knowledge has been gradually lost and proof of that are the diseases and epidemies consequence of innacurated settlements. In this context, salt has been used during centuries with different applications. As long as medicine and scientific research have evolved, the salt and its relationship with health have become more visible. Modern lifestyles and consumption patterns are affecting negatively both human health and environmental healthiness. Emphasizing the heritage, cultural landscapes and artisan activities make people develop special connections with territories that need to be explored yet. This paper shows the interest on supporting interdisciplinary studies and collaboration between different fields, in order to better understand the relations cause-effect between environment, territories, habits and lifestyles and human health.
