Abstract

Abstract. The article presents the results of an empirical study on the adherence to a healthy lifestyle among higher education students. The focus is placed on three key components that significantly influence the quality of student life: nutrition, sleep, and physical activity. The survey was conducted online and involved 162 students from Borys Grinchenko Kyiv Metropolitan University. Respondents were asked to answer questions related to their daily habits and lifestyle features. The analysis revealed that some students follow healthy practices, such as regular lunch intake, daily physical activity (including walking), and moderate exercise. However, several problematic issues were also identified: skipping breakfast, irregular or insufficient sleep, and lack of structured physical training. Such lifestyle shortcomings may negatively affect both the physical and psycho-emotional well-being of students. The research findings highlight the need for comprehensive efforts to promote a healthy lifestyle in the student community. It is recommended to intensify preventive measures and awareness-raising initiatives in higher education institutions aimed at fostering a conscious attitude of young people toward their own health. The study concludes that only a systematic and targeted approach in this direction can help form responsible behavioral models necessary for the harmonious development of the individual.
