The subject of our presentation is the style of life looked into as an issue of interdisciplinary research and its health oriented values in the contemporary world full of hazards to human health. Hence, the need to educate youth and the entire society to health oriented life style. When analysing the function and variations of the life style we define its pro-health values with particular focus on man's participation in physical culture. In view of the challenges of civilisation, physical recreation assumes particular importance in the promotion of health and in the choice of a life style. The above problem should be recognised in the health education of youth, however, it is not always included in the programmes of teachers' education.
