In our work, we focused on selected lifestyle risk factors among college students having regard to the fact that one of the observed groups was educated in this issue. The research sample consisted of 287 college students of medical and non-medical fields aged range 18-30 years. In our research we used the questionnaire method. Processing the data obtained, we used statistical program Microsoft Excel. Our research showed that despite data from the literature, which describes the positive impact of education on lifestyle, in our study education of our respondents did not appear significantly to their lifestyle. We expected that students medical branches reach far better results in the issue of proper lifestyles than less educated students of technical fields.

Keywords: risk factors life style; anthropometric measurements
