In the future, the state of health of children, adolescents, and young adults will require continuous attention from healthcare professionals. The stably high prevalence of the school-related diseases associated with the learning conditions and lifestyle components requires introduction of new approaches into prevention of health problems in the younger generation. The study aimed to summarize the results of the research focused on the features of lifestyle of children, adolescents, and young adults, as well as on the approaches to their hygiene education. The review of scientific papers deposited in the eLibrary, PubMed, CyberLeninka databases in 2010−2024 was accomplished. The literature data analysis showed the need to refocus attention on the methods for primary prevention of health problems in the youth, not on the secondary prevention methods. One effective mechanism of such work is the hygiene education system, which in this case should be directed towards individuals engaged in the youth training and education system, healthare professionals, and parents.
