Abstract

The World Health Organization (WHO) actively encourages the world's population to follow and implement healthy lifestyle rules. The relevance of these measures is due to world statistics, according to which the burden of morbidity and mortality at the global level falls precisely on the avoidance of following healthy lifestyle rules, and also the attitude towards a healthy lifestyle in the country has not been properly studied. This issue must be carefully studied, and appropriate evidence-based recommendations should be prepared. In the course of the research, many accents were revealed that were neglected by the contingent of adolescents. For example, health education as a necessary component of measures aimed at implementing a healthy lifestyle, so that individuals realize the need for activities necessary for their own health. The study also confirmed the need for integrated work of public, governmental and non-governmental organizations to achieve success.
