Healthy Monday: Swimming

-         Swimming is a great way to get aerobic physical activity.

-         Just 2 ½ hours of swimming per week can reduce the risk of a chronic illness.

-         Aerobic exercise may improve the health of those living with diabetes and heart disease.

-         It is important to be aware of health risks such as sunburn, drowning, and other injuries.

-         Drowning is the 2nd leading cause of all unintentional injury deaths in children aged 1-14 years and the 7th leading cause of unintentional injury death for all ages.
