RESUMO
Circulatory system diseases are the epidemic of our times. According to epidemiologic statistics concerning Poland, they are the major cause of deaths. Among diseases associated with circulatory system, ischemia results in substantial number of deaths. However, we can decrease the risk of ischemia by changing the lifestyle. Our research tries to examine and judge the lifestyle of teenagers from Bytom's schools as well as prevention of circulatory diseases--mainly ischemia is concerned. We examined 205 students from secondary schools. The obtained results are not satisfactory. Lack of knowledge linked with good health manners or even improper and anti-health manners of young people may have significant impact on the development of circulatory system diseases in adult life.
