The answer is secondary prevention. It deals with the hidden diseases and tries to prevent an asymptomatic disease from turning into a symptomatic disease. These measures or preventions allow early detection and quick effective treatment to a disease. These consist of "early diagnosis and prompt treatment" to contain the disease and prevent the spread to other individuals. It also prevents future complications and disabilities from the illness.

Westkost [7]

*** The problem that concerns me most is diabetes mellitus.

Diabetes mellitus is a chronic disease that can not be cured but can be treated and controlled. It is caused by a lack or lack of use of a hormone called insulin.

*** Why?

Diabetes mellitus is a public health problem that can be prevented or reduced easily without the use of severe restrictions.

*** The measures to be taken to eradicate diabetes mellitus:

a decrease in the intake of sugars (especially refined sucrose) saturated fats (found in large quantities in fast-foods and prepared dishes)

 

an increase in the intake of dietary fiber found in fruit and vegetables (adapt a non-industrial natural product-based dietary regimen)

 

moderate physical activity (at least 30 min per day).

I'd suggest connecting the ability to swim to what it means on a larger scale: how it contributes to our ability to learn, helps involve us in community settings, and provides a pause and release from stress. They're not things unique to swimming yet its something many individuals have in common, things that help build us up and keep us emotionally and socially healthy. You can choose to directly connect this to a childhood development or keep it to a more vague adulthood idea.

You could also go in a different direction (in my opinion much more boring haha) of the physical ways swimming is beneficial. Its reduced pressure on joints during a swim (low impact), how it increases motor skills, and reduces inflammation, all things which prevent the process of aging.
