1. A protective helmet for work or sports, comprising:
a structure having a substantially convex outer surface and a substantially concave inner surface;
a protective body having a first portion engageable to the inner surface of the structure and a second portion having a concavity adapted to receive in engagement the head of a user;
wherein the protective body comprises:
a base element made up of a first material for shock and/or impact absorption having a predetermined first density value, the base element having a concave surface defining the concavity of the protective body and a housing cavity facing away with respect to the concave surface; and
a protective insert made of a second material for shock and/or impact absorption having a second predetermined different density value lower than the first density value of the first material of the base element, the protective insert being at least partially insertable in the housing cavity of the base element, and
wherein the housing cavity of the base element is defined by a bottom and by a side wall extending transversely to the bottom, the concave surface of the base element being spaced from the bottom of the respective housing cavity by an intermediate thickness of the first material.
