RESUMO
The current higher education modernization is accompanied by the intensification of an educational process. Due to intensive mental work and a need to adapt to new educational conditions, the students belong to a group of increased risk. Morbidity rates were studied in medical students during education. The study indicated a rise in morbidity in the period 2005 to 2009, high morbidity rates in first- and second-year students, the seasonal pattern of diseases, and a preponderance of respiratory diseases and mental disorders as a ground for a sabbatical leave, which is due to the specific features of education at a medical higher educational establishment.

The paper gives the results of a study of the lifestyle of medical students. The students' motor activity has been found to be lower and to continue to drop in the undergraduates. Examination of the daily routine has shown that 92% of the students break the study-and-rest routine; the reported reasons for this are a high academic load, a prolonged academic day, a study-work combination, mental stress during examinations, and computer-aided learning. The students' nutrition is inadequate in major nutrients, poor-quality, irregular, and uncontrolled. The college crowd shows a preponderance of bad habits; 85% of cases had these or those combinations of risk factors: smoking, low motor activity, overweight, alcohol consumption, etc.
