Comparative analysis of adherence to the principles of a healthy lifestyle by Russian and foreign students of a medical university

the article discusses the formation of a healthy lifestyle in order to preserve and improve the health of students during their studies at a medical university. This article focuses on the study of health and adherence to the principles of a healthy lifestyle among Russian and foreign students at a medical university. The article also highlights the importance of involving foreign students in physical education. The analysis of questionnaire data revealed the main factors affecting the health of students, as well as their attitudes towards a healthy lifestyle. The study evaluated the level of physical activity, dietary habits, and sleep patterns, as well as the students' awareness of the principles of a healthy lifestyle and disease prevention. The study showed that not all students perceive a healthy lifestyle as a necessary skill. The development of healthy lifestyle skills should be started at a young age for successful medical practice and monitoring of one's own health and the health of others. Based on the results obtained, recommendations were developed for the formation of a healthy lifestyle among medical students, taking into account the individual and cultural characteristics of the students. It is necessary to build the learning process on the orientation of health values and a healthy lifestyle for both Russian and foreign students at a medical university, as they not only affect their style, but also form professional attitudes and ethical standards that will be applied in future medical practice. Organizing joint sports events allows Russian and foreign students to come together and create a comfortable environment for the development of healthy lifestyle skills.
