Animal toys created for education and fun SAN FRANCISCO (AP) The World Wildlife together with a San Francisco-based manufacturer, has created a line of plush toy animals that represent some of the most threatened species in the wild.

Connie Boucher, a long-time friend of conservation and president of Determined Productions, the manufacturer, says the dolls are designed to educate as well as delight children. "We hope it will be the beginning of a lifetime interest in conservation." Women encouraged to exercise By JANE E. BRODY N.Y. Times News Service NEW YORK Millions of American women seem to have overcome the notion that sweat-inducing exercise is unfeminine and unattractive.

They have discovered instead that exercise is one of the best ways to become and remain attractive long after sedentary Personal health women have lost their trim, tight bodies and the flush of youth. Some also realize regular vigorous exercise can help protect them against the ravages of heart disease, high blood pressure, diabetes, varicose veins and osteoporosis as well as obesity. Still, women seem especially vulnerable to propaganda against exercise and to misinformation about who should exercise, how much, when and how. Many of these myths are explored and dispelled in a recent book that might have been called "Exercise: Not For Women Only." (The book itself is not for women only, and should be read by all physicians who treat women.) Its actual title is "The Complete Sports Medicine Book for Women" (Simon and Schuster-Fireside, $16.95 in hard cover, $8.95 in paperback) and it was written by Dr. Mona Shangold, director of sports gynecology at Georgetown University Hospital in Washington and Dr.

Gabe Mirkin of Silver Spring, medical editor of Runner's World magazine and co-author with Marshall Hoffman of "The Sportsmedicine Book" (Little, Brown, 1978). The authors point out that although society has traditionally encouraged exercise for men and discouraged it for women, exercise is more important for women, who are more prone than men to disorders such as osteoporosis and obesity. Osteoporosis, the severe loss of bone with age that can result in debilitating fractures, is epidemic among older American women, and vigorous activity is one of the few safe ways to build and maintain strong bones throughout life. As for weight control, most responsible authorities now agree dieting alone is nearly always ineffective in achieving and maintaining normal body weight, while exercise alone or exercise plus a modest reduction in caloric intake is far more likely to produce lasting success. For women who are convinced exercise should be an integral part of their lives, here are some tips offered by Shangold and Mirkin that can help maximize the pleasure exercise can bring and minimize the risk of injury or discomfort.

Food and Drink: High-protein diets, which are unhealthy for anyone (they can increase the risk of cancer, heart disease and osteoporosis), are an especially poor choice for the active woman. Muscle cells depend primarily on carbohydrates for fuel, and improving muscle tone or strengthening one's muscles does not require increased protein intake. Most Americans on an Elderly need exertion By The New York Times Exercise is important for women of any age. Older women need exercise more than younger ones but are the least likely to pursue it. As Dr.

Mona Shangold and Dr. Gabe Mirkin, co-authors of "The Complete Sports Medicine Book for Women," say, "Although many women over the age of 50 believe that exercise is dangerous for them, it is actually dangerous for them not to exercise." They recommend walking and weight lifting to strengthen leg and arm bones, aerobic exercise (such as brisk walking, stationary cycling and swimming) to reduce the risk of heart disease and middle-age spread, and calisthenics to promote flexibility. They recommend against jogging on a trampoline for older women because of an increased risk of injury to aging bones and joints. ordinary diet already consume two or more times their daily protein needs. The best or healthiest carbohydrates are the starches in grains, pastas, breads, beans and the like, especially in their unrefined form.

These starches are more slowly digested than sugars and provide a steadier and longer-lasting source of fuel for muscles. While exercise does not seem to increase vitamin needs beyond what an active woman is likely to consume in the course of ordinary meals, the mineral iron may be in short supply, especially in some active women. Iron deficiency, even before it leads to anemia or notable fatigue, can impair athletic performance. Shangold recommends menstruating women, who are the most likely to be affected by iron deficiency (iron is lost monthly during menstrual bleeding), have a serum ferritin test to check their iron levels from time to time. Foods rich in iron include red meat (especially liver), fish, chicken, green leafy vegetables, dried fruits, dried beans and peas, potatoes and enriched and whole-grain breads and cereals.

The iron in plant foods is not so well absorbed as that in meat. However, iron absorption is enhanced when any iron-rich food is consumed along with a food rich in vitamin such as citrus fruits, tomatoes or peppers. Some active women, such as those with very heavy menstrual bleeding, may need an iron supplement. Even more important than what an active woman eats is what she drinks. Few women drink enough during ordinary circumstances: Six to eight glasses of clear fluids are recommended daily.

The active woman may need to double the usual intake to avoid dehydration and heat stress. Coffee, sugar-sweetened soft drinks and alcoholic beverages are dehydrating and may impair performance. Water (cold is absorbed faster than hot) remains the best hydrating fluid. Don't rely on thirst to signal how much to drink. Drink before and after exercise and, if a workout lasts more than 45 minutes, during exercise as well.

What to Wear: Comfort, Shangold and Mirkin say, should be the guide. Exercise clothing should be made of soft fabrics with soft seams that do not rub. For a woman with small breasts, the authors say a bra is optional, although small-breasted women who run without a bra may develop blisters around their nipples. However, heavy breasts that bounce a lot during exercise may be subject to stretching that can hasten sagging. So women with heavy breasts are advised to wear a bra with strong support.

Avoid materials that rub and bones or wires that dig in. Some women may find it best to have different bras for different activities, depending upon the amount of support needed for each. Certain women might also consider wearing an especially supportive bra in the days just before menstruation, when breasts tend to swell and get heavy. The doctors insist there is no proof yet that underpants made of synthetic fabrics contribute to vaginitis. They advise instead against wearing underpants that rub, constrict, ride up or cause overheating.

Cotton, which absorbs moisture, may be best for activities that cause sweating, and the synthetic fabric polypropylene can draw moisture away from the skin. Runners might consider shorts that have a built-in panty with a cotton crotch, and cyclists may need a chamois-crotch panty to prevent friction on delicate genital tissues. The authors recommend against wearing leotards and tights during intense indoor exercise because these elasticized garments promote overheating. Women who exercise outdoors in summer should avoid the midday sun or protect their skin against sun damage by wearing a hat and protective clothing and by using a sunscreen. Exercise And Menstruation: The start of menstrual bleeding is no reason to stop exercising.

Indeed, many women find that exercise reduces menstrual discomfort and makes them feel more energetic and comfortable. Many more say that exercise during the premenstrual period reduces symptoms of PMS (ppremenst- rual syndrome). Women who stop menstruating because of intense exercise might consider it a warning they are doing too much. Studies have indicated that such women are at risk of premature bone loss (their bodies act as if they were menopausal) and may need supplemental estrogens..
