For adult males, the daily recommendation is 2 cups of fruit and 2.5-3 cups of vegetables per day, and for adult females, the daily recommendation is 1.5-2 cups of fruit and 2.5-3 cups of vegetables per day. An easy solution to adding more fruits and veggies into your daily diet would be simply to buy more produce, right? Not always. In the middle of the long, cold winters shopping for produce often involves pacing tirelessly up and down the produce aisle only to be left with the options of the most bruised or overripe fruits and vegetables items. During these times, many of us yearn for the luscious, fresh food items that are so accessible during with the warmer seasons, but we often forget that there is another option available. Try frozen fruit and vegetables instead. Fresh vs. Frozen: Is there a difference? In a recent study published by the Journal of Agriculture and Food Chemistry, researchers examined whether refrigerated or frozen fruits and vegetables maintained nutrients better than fresh, and they found that there were no significant differences between fresh and frozen produce when it was harvested and stored at the same time. So the next time you’re searching endlessly through the oftentimes picked-over produce aisle during the winter months, consider taking a gander down the frozen section as well. Many times the frozen section has a much wider, more stocked selection of fruits and vegetables. A longer storage life is another advantage to buying frozen produce, which is convenient for those that like to stock up on groceries ahead of time.You can feel confident you are providing adequate nutrition for you and your family.

"Too often, individuals don't take time to invest in the importance of good nutrition and exercise for their bodies," said Nikki Prosch, SDSU Extension Health & Physical Activity Field Specialist. "Living a healthy lifestyle comes down to everyday decisions." Decisions like: Will I ride my bike to work today or drive the eight blocks? Should I make some homemade lasagna or stop and grab something at the drive-thru for lunch? Should I walk for 15 minutes during my morning break or enjoy my regular cup of coffee? Should I purchase some strawberries or my favorite potato chips at the grocery store? "The list of decisions made each day goes on and on," Prosch said. "Awhile back, I heard a saying that has stuck with me over the years, 'It's easy to lose weight, which is why most fad diets out there often work. The hard part is keeping the weight off and truly changing your normal behaviors for lifelong health.'" Below she lists some helpful tips to start making healthful choices. Overcoming Barriers: "One of the first steps in making healthy choices each day is realizing the importance of living a healthy lifestyle and truly making a behavior change," Prosch said. If you have a major barrier preventing you from living a healthy lifestyle, try one of the tips below. Time: "To overcome this barrier, it takes true honesty and assessment of your normal routine," Prosch said. She suggested tracking your everyday life and decisions, identify time slots where physical activity or other health enhancing activities could be incorporated. For example, can you walk during work breaks, while you play with your children, 15 minutes before and 15 minutes after work? As far as food preparation, assess whether time is the true barrier to prepar- “WHEN I WAS LOOKING FOR A JOB, I PUT THE CLASSIFIEDS TO WORK!” Our Help Wanted Listings Have Hundreds Of Opportunities For You...

Laura Hegerfeld, Broker Assoc. 510 Main Ave Brookings, SD E X P O S E Y O U R D I R T ing a healthy meal. Some simple, healthy meals take very little time to prepare. "Try planning meals ahead of time to save families time and expense," Prosch said. Access: Access to fitness centers, grocery stores, health facilities and other healthy living resources may be scarce or unavailable in your community. "Although it might seem like this is a barrier you can't overcome, try thinking creatively and advocating for change," Prosch said. To help with the brainstorming, Prosch outlines some questions to ask yourself: Can you work out in your house, at a local school or church or can you create a walking club? Can you plant your own garden or start a community garden? Can you try purchasing more frozen and canned fruit and vegetables? Can you advocate for development, policies or access to exercise amenities? Can you start a community coalition to help improve access and education about these issues? Too tired: Does this sound familiar? "I'm too tired to prepare a full meal or do any type of activity." If tiredness is a common barrier for your health decisions, think about assessing your sleep routine to improve your health. "Sleep may be the component to solve your healthy living barriers," Prosch said. Social Influences: We eat for pleasure, entertainment, when we are bored, socially and for many other reasons. "Additionally, individuals you surround yourself with may be influencing your activity levels, both good and bad," Prosch said. She encouraged individuals to assess how their social environment is influencing their health behaviors. "Target areas where easy changes could be made," she said. "For example, could you replace a regular dinner date with a walking date once or twice a month?" - See more at: http://igrow.org/news/ invest-in-yourself-makeeach-day-count/#sthash. ztMW3nbW.dpuf • Full-Time • Part-Time • Permanent • Temporary sm AUCTION 12:30 Sunday March 12th, 2017 Lunch Served • National Guard Armory (603 Princeton) Vermillion, SD Auctioneer notes: For picture and more go to Dakotarealty.com Guns: Model xt-17 cal.
