Lambert's essay, "How Can / Maintain My Health" received first place honors and will be for warded to the state essay finals. State winners will at tend a Public Health Week Luncheon April 6. (Photo by Pam Frederick) Health should be teen concern Editor's Note: This essay by Up church Junior High School seventh grader Robert D. Lambert was the winning selection in a recent con test sponsored by the Hoke Health Department. Lambert will now compete on a statewide level. by Robert D. Lambert Today every teenager should ask himself a very important question-"How can I maintain my health?" This question did not bother me until about a year ago. It was then that I started running as a sport. I plan to keep running through high school and college and to try and go to the Olympic Games in 1992 or 1996 as a long distance runner. To reach my goals, 1 know J have to stay healthy, I realized this after I started running. After thinking about this prob lem and talking to my coach and my P.E. teacher, I found that to stay healthy a person must choose wisely what to eat and how much, what kind of exercise to do, how much rest is needed, and what kind of medical care a person needs. One of the main ways to stay healthy is to make sure of good nutrition. The important thing to decide is whether the food you eat includes all the foods you need to keep fit. Experts have classed food into four main groups: the Milk Group, the Meat Group, the Vegetable Fruit Group, and the Bread-Cereal Group. . The expert^, have also recommended the number of serv ings from each group that is need ed for a good diet for most people. They recommend that a person eat two servings from the Meat Group and four servings from the Milk, Vegetable-Fruit, and Bread-Cereal Groups. Many people eat three meals a day, others more than that. The number is not important. What is important is that the body gets enough nutrients. Nutrients in food are what pro vides materials for building and repairing body tissue and for pro viding energy for the body. The most common nutrients are: Pro teins, Carbohydrates, Fats, Vitamins and Mineral Salts. Personally, I try to eat three full meals a day and a snack before bed. 1 try to make sure that I eat the number of recommended serv ings from each Food Group. I also try to eat foods that give me the nutrients I need. On the last two days of a week that I have a race, 1 do what is call ed "Carbohydrate Loading." That means I eat foods with a lot of car bohydrates because they give me the energy that I need in a race. This is the only thing that I do in addition to my regular diet. The second important part of a health program is exercise. A per son's body is made for activity. If he docs not get enough exer cise, his body is not as strong. The best thing about exercise is that it helps build a strong body. Exercise will do this in three ways. The first is that it will build up a strong blood-circulation system. The heart is a muscle and exercise will make It stronger and bigger and make it able to pump more blood. The second way is that exercise will build up the lungs. Because of exercise the lungs will be able to handle more air. The third way is that exercise will build up a person's muscles and endurance. My personal type of exercise is called training. In training exercise must be done regularly. % For my training program, I run each day, except Sunday. I take that day off to rest. I run about 45-50 miles per week. The results of proper training are: ?Strong muscles and Endurance ?Good muscle coordination ?Strong heartbeat with lower ^ pulse rate ? ?Little rise in blood pressure ?Good digestion. Another part of a good health program is rest and relaxation. Everyone needs rest or sleep. During sleep the body continues to work and during sleep waste products that build up in the body are gotten rid of. A person should sleep enough so ? that he will feel rested when he gets ? up. I try to get at least eight hours of sleep each night. The last part of a good health program is having the correct medical and dental care. A person should have a medical checkup at least once a year. He should also see a dentist at least once a year and do all the things, tike brushing his teeth, to keep his teeth healthy. ^ As part of my running training ? program I get two physicals per year and see the dentist at least once every year. I know that most people who are in good health in their late teenage years slay in goodi health for the rest of their lives. The best way to make sure of full healthy life is to start young and continue the good programs of exercise, eating, rest ^ and correct medical and dental ? care as an adult. That is the reason I plan to follow the program I have set out.
