The main value orientations of medical students are directly or indirectly associated with various components of health. On the other hand, the knowledge of the predominating effect of life style on health, hazards of nicotine and alcohol did not become a persuasion in the majority of students, and high value of health did not transform into motivation forits preservation. That is why special attention in the training of physicians should be paid to the formation of practical habits of fundamentals of healthy life style. Healthy life style, an obligatory component of professional status of a physician, promotes a higher general cognitive activity of students and formation of persuasion of future doctors in their obligatory personal involvement in the solution of the problem of healthy life style of the entire population.
