Kazan schoolchildren were told about the benefits of healthy lifestyle
A healthy lifestyle is a significant health factor. It is laid from early childhood and needs careful care throughout life.
The basis of a healthy lifestyle is a combination of factors, such as proper nutrition, a sufficient level of physical activity, sound sleep, proper daily routine, and the absence of bad habits.
Today, many schoolchildren have a poor state of health, and various factors influence this. But as numerous studies show, the state of a person's health depends mostly on himself or herself.
On December 17 and 18, volunteers of the "Information hygiene” project of the Department of General Hygiene of the Kazan State Medical University of the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation held class hours for more than 200 schoolchildren in the school #42 and for 140 schoolchildren in the gymnasium #139 in the Privolzhsky district of Kazan. These lectures aim to educate and instill interest in a healthy lifestyle.
The children learned about the importance of a healthy diet, the impact of electronic cigarettes on the vital functions of organs, the prevention of inactivity, HIV infection and hepatitis, the harm of social networks on human health, as well as injuries and first aid.
During these hours, the children came to know a lot of new and useful things. For the younger classes, the classes were held in the game room, and for the senior students they were presented in the form of an interactive lecture.
The events were held in compliance with anti-epidemic recommendations. Information printed materials were distributed to schoolchildren, with the help of which it will be easier for them to find reliable information about a healthy lifestyle.
