Less than one-quarter (24%) of children 6 to 17 years of age participate in 60 minutes of physical activity every day.

According to the most current Youth Risk Behavior Surveillance System (YRBSS) study, just 23.2% of high school students in the United States engaged in physical activity for at least 60 minutes each day. The YRBSS is a twice-yearly survey of high school students' self-reported health habits that is conducted by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Overall, according to a CDC analysis, "the prevalence of behaviors that promote physical activity for health was low in 2019 and either fell or stayed the same during the preceding 10 years." Particularly, between 2011 and 2019, a considerable reduction was seen in the percentage of pupils achieving the criteria for physical exercise.

1. Explain what balance, variety and moderation are in a healthy diet.
nignag [31]

Answer: mark me as brainliest

Explanation:

A balanced diet is one that fulfills all of a person’s nutritional needs. Humans need a certain amount of calories and nutrients to stay healthy.

A balanced diet provides all the nutrients a person requires, without going over the recommended daily calorie intake.

By eating a balanced diet, people can get the nutrients and calories they need and avoid eating junk food, or food without nutritional value.

The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) used to recommend following a food pyramid. However, as nutritional science has changed, they now recommend eating foods from the five groups and building a balanced plate.

According to the USDA’s recommendations, half of a person’s plate should consist of fruits and vegetables.

The other half should be made up of grains and protein.

What does it mean when you have high blood pressure?
yKpoI14uk [10]

Blood pressure is the result of two forces:  from the heart as it pumps blood into the arteries and throughout the circulatory system, and the force of the arteries as they resist blood flow.

<span>You probably have high blood pressure (hypertension) if your blood pressure readings are consistently 140 over 90, or higher.
</span>

If you have high blood pressure, this higher pressure puts extra strain on your heart and blood vessels. Over time, this extra strain increases your risk of a heart attack or stroke.

High blood pressure can also cause heart and kidney disease and is closely linked to some forms of dementia.
