Physical Activity Topic for May…
MAKE IT FUN!
Garden strawberries are a common variety of strawberry grown
worldwide. It is the most common type of strawberry grown
commercially. Like other species of strawberries, it belongs to the Rose
family. The Garden Strawberry was first bred in Europe in the early 18th
century where they were used for centuries as symbols of purity and
longevity. Depending on the culture they were believed to prolong life.
Strawberries have since then migrated to the United States which is now
the top strawberry producing country in the world, followed by Spain.
Healthy living and physical fitness are closely connected. Being physically
fit not only helps people live healthy lives, it also helps people live
longer. People who make physical activity and exercise a part of their
daily lives when they are young are more likely to keep it in their lives as
they grow older and benefit from it throughout their lifespans. Physical
activity is defined as any movement that spends energy. Exercise is a
subset of physical activity, but it is an activity that is structured and
planned.
There are over 20 named species of strawberry plants. Strawberry
varieties vary remarkably in size, color, flavor, shape, degree of fertility,
season of ripening, liability to disease and constitution of plant.
Strawberries are the only fruit with seeds on the outside. The average
strawberry has 200 seeds.
While many children engage in physical activity, usually by playing with
their friends, the amount of physical activity they get as they grow into
adolescents usually declines. In fact, many researchers believe that
physical inactivity is a national health problem that can increase the risk
of illness and disease. According to the Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC), doing some kind of physical activity or exercise on a
regular basis helps to increase strength and flexibility, improve
endurance, control weight, increase bone mass, and improve selfesteem, as well as reduce stress, anxiety, depression, and the risk of
developing high blood pressure.
Select bright red berries with their caps intact. Smaller berries are
usually more sweet and flavorful. Avoid soft, moldy and/or shriveled
berries.
Strawberries should be eaten as soon as possible. Do not wash until you
are ready to consume them. If you must store strawberries, place them
on a paper towel in a tightly-covered container in the refrigerator for 2
to 3 days. They may also be frozen whole or in pieces. To freeze, wash
and hull, sprinkle with 1/3 cup sugar, and toss gently with your hands.
Place in freezer containers or zip-top bags. Use within 1 year.
Strawberries are recognized as having more vitamin C than some citrus
fruits. They are also high in fiber, folate, potassium and antioxidants,
making them a natural means of reducing the chances of heart disease,
high blood pressure and certain cancers. Strawberries have only 55
calories per one cup serving, and contain 140% of the recommended
daily dose of vitamin C for children.

The best way to keep physical activity and exercise a permanent part of
one's life is to make it fun and enjoyable. If people are given different
options of what they can do and have easy access to those options, they
are more likely to participate in physical activity and exercise. This allows
people to have a positive attitude toward physical fitness. It's also
helpful if people are knowledgeable about the rewards of physical
activity and exercise.
