programa preventivo de saúde


Explanation:
"Wellness" é um termo que passou a ser usado alguns anos atrás em substituição ao então corrente "Fitness". Por motivos talvez de PCness, visto que o verbo "fit" pode implicar adaptação, conformidade, coisas que passaram a ter uma conotação, digamos, negativa.
