The lifestyle in the philosophical and sociological sense covers the totality of typical types of life of an individual, social group, society as a whole in unity with living conditions.

Why is there so much interest in lifestyle? According to WHO experts, human health depends on the following components:

• lifestyle - 52-55%;

• environment state - 22-25%;

• genetic predisposition -18-20%;

• healthcare - 8-10%.

From the above data it follows that more than 50% success or failure in maintaining high potential for human health is determined by his lifestyle. And this success awaits him only if it is a healthy lifestyle.

If you try to express this concept very briefly, then healthy lifestyle

is a combination of hygienic (i.e., promoting health) norms and rules implemented in the lifestyle of a person (fig. 11.1).
