Extractions: The Pediatric Nutrition Surveillance System (PNSS) was established by CDC in 1974 to monitor the growth and hematologic status of children from low-income families participating in such programs as the Special Supplemental Food Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC)*; Early Periodic Screening, Detection, and Treatment; and publicly funded maternal- and child-health clinics. The hematologic data collected since 1975 from the states participating in PNSS have demonstrated a steady decline in the prevalence of childhood anemia (1,2). The number of states participating in the surveillance system has increased from five in 1974 to 34 in 1986. Since this changing composition could have influenced the observed anemia trend, data from six states (Arizona, Louisiana, Kentucky, Montana, Oregon, and Tennessee) that have consistently participated in the PNSS since 1975 were analyzed. In these analyses, the following age-specific hemoglobin (Hgb) and hematocrit (Hct) levels were used as cutpoints to define anemia: age 6-23 months, Hgb less than 10.3 gm/dl or Hct less than 31%; age 24-59 months, Hgb less than 10.6 gm/dl or Hct less than 32%; age 60-83 months, Hgb less than 11.0 gm/dl or Hct less than 33%. These cutpoints, which are 0.6 gm/dl Hgb or 2% Hct lower than the commonly used clinical criteria (3), were chosen to avoid inclusion of children with borderline anemia.

Extractions: Florida schools serve 2.7 million students, approximately 20% of whom live in poverty. In 1999, 81% of Floridas youth (aged 1024 years) did not attend daily physical education classes, 78% did not participate in any moderate physical activity, 74% did not eat the recommended five servings of fruits and vegetables per day, and about half (48%) consumed alcohol during the month preceding survey or had engaged in sexual intercourse (50%). Evidence That Prevention Works Health education in schools can reduce the prevalence of health risk behaviors among young people. For example, health education resulted in a 37% reduction in the onset of smoking among 7th graders. In addition, obese girls in the 6th and 8th grades lost weight through a program at school, and students who attended a school-based life-skills training program were less likely than other students to smoke or use alcohol or marijuana.

Extractions: Forgotten NCSLnet Password? Physical Activity and Nutrition Updated February 2003 Physical inactivity and unhealthy eating are behaviors that have an impact on health. Together, they are responsible for at least 300,000 preventable deaths each year. Regular physical activity provides short-term benefits, such as reducing symptoms of anxiety and depression, and reduces long-term risks for disability and premature death. Despite the proven benefits of being physically active, more than 60 percent of American adults do not engage in levels of physical activity necessary to provide health benefits ( see postcard ). Good nutrition lowers a person's risk for many chronic diseases. However, a considerable gap remains between recommended dietary patterns and what Americans actually eat. Only about one-fourth of U.S. adults eat the recommended five or more servings of fruits and vegetables each day.
