00:00The word SLA, often, actually not often, always includes the term increscente, because
00:19it is a strongly impacting disease, it is a pre-invasion disease, but if we take
00:29it in another way, you see that we turn pain into love, with simplicity, because the SLA
00:44can become flavors, and the flavor is the flavor of life, the flavor that allows us
00:53to continue our journey. The value of food for a person with SLA is a very high value,
01:04and that is why we are immediately committed to giving a strong response to the problem
01:21of food for a person with SLA. I, as president of SLA Food, the association that brings together
01:33Italian chefs, I immediately made myself available to try to understand how to continue
01:43to make the journey, especially of life, which is a disease that SLA has to face, pleasant,
01:53a moment like eating, because it is assumed that eating is an almost instinctive moment,
02:12but it is not so, eating, sitting at the table, participating, is a very important moment
02:22in our life, to which we must always dedicate the right time, because it is a moment in which
02:31there is a deep sharing, there is a moment of conviviality, exchange of emotions,
02:42and to be able to do it, to normalize SLA, means to continue in our process of life,
02:52which must not only be a survival, but it must be to live life day by day.
03:02Already, after that, we move on to bonds, and there are no stronger bonds than those
03:10that are within the family, within the deep friendships, which in the disease itself
03:21become fundamental. The autonomy is exactly what is missing in a SLA patient.
03:29But SLA is affected by the movements, it is deprived of its autonomy, but that in this case,
03:41through the bonds of the family and the flavors, the possibility of feeding on products
03:52that have an adequate consistency, so that the concept of autonomy returns
04:00within the thought of the SLA patient, and this autonomy, the ability to be still at the center
04:12of life day by day, and it makes a kind of booster for a patient, it gives you a great energy,
04:22a great awareness, the awareness that even in the disease you can continue to move forward
04:34and you can, above all, find the opportunity to try to breathe life.
