In addition, student youth must have a certain level of general culture, which
effectively influences the formation of their personal traits. A component of the
general culture of the individual is the culture of health, the culture of a healthy
lifestyle. After all, only a healthy person is able to create spiritual and material
values, generate new ideas and creatively implement them.
Addressing the realities of today shows that for a long time the main signs of life in
Ukraine were economic instability, social tension, deteriorating environmental
situation, which led to a reduction in life expectancy, an increase in the number of
diseases. The latter indicator depends not only on the impact of various negative
phenomena that occur in the environment, but also on the level of human culture in
the field of healthy living. These issues are especially important for young people.
High dynamism and low predictability of the current reality give grounds for the
separation of student youth as a carrier of human potential of tomorrow's Ukraine in a
special social group. The combination of Ukrainian specifics with new generally
civilized tendencies creates for young people, as insufficiently socially and
psychologically protected, an increased threat of various risks, the main of which are
related to health.
