Résumé

This article presents the results of a study with supermarket customers and fitness center users. The research shows that the daily life of these individuals (here called "the public") contemplates elements of the mediatic discourse about health and well-being. In the perspective of this study, this discourse is compatible with biopower, the power technique that seeks to create economically active bodies. The work uses participant observation. It was carried out in Santa Catarina, State recognized by the indices of human development and quality of life. The manuscript concludes that among the public, elements of the mediatic discourse appear in daily practices that result in an efficient body, or body conomically active.
