Health – an invaluable asset not only of every person, but the whole society.

Healthy lifestyle – it's a lifestyle, able to provide recovery, preservation and improvement of public health, it is a complex of wellness measures, ensuring harmonious development and health promotion, increased efficiency, prolongation of creative longevity. Therefore, the formation of this lifestyle among the population – the most important social task of national importance and scale in the Republic of Belarus. According to WHO, a decisive influence on the formation of human health is exerted by his lifestyle. It should be noted, that the most significant social group in the issue of promoting and informing about the importance of an active and healthy lifestyle is youth, in particular children, school age teenagers, students. It was during this period that a person's value system was formed., its formation in moral and ethical terms, strengthening his health.
