Summary/Abstract: A range of risk factors, so-called civilization diseases, begins to develop in childhood and fully manifested in adulthood. It is important to point out these factors and affect them with appropriate preventive activities. The chapter contains the results of the research carried out on a sample of elementary school pupils. The quantitative survey uses a method of an anonymous questionnaire sent to 100 pupils attending the selected elementary school. Several areas of life style (nutrition, physical activity, risk behaviour of addiction, sleep, leisure) were mapped. The final results show that the pupils participated in the research do not respect the principles of the healthy lifestyle to the extent necessary. Their knowledge and habits are average. The research reveals that the emphasis should be focused on nutrition composition and regularity in eating, drinking regime, the strengthening movement and reducing the risks for substance abuse.
