Japan is now a country where people enjoy a long life. However, there is a trend in society towards poorer health, so there is a need to promote self-awareness of "health throughout life" to counter this trend. Under the current circumstances, it is beneficial for adolescents to have an educational course to learn the concepts and status of health management. The author gave fourteen lectures on "Medical Care and Health" in a class consisting of fifty-five students belonging to the Faculty of Policy Management. The lecture topics were: the concept of health; life style related diseases; health-related behaviors involving smoking, drinking, obesity, exercise; infection; and reproductive health and rights. A questionnaire survey of the attendants was conducted to obtain their opinions about the lectures and to ascertain the extent of any changes they had made to life-style after the lectures. The percentages of students declaring an interest in reproductive health and rights, drinking, and smoking, were 48%, 26%, and 24% respectively. 20% of the students began to take breakfast regularly, 17% reduced their salt intake, 16% changed their attitude to alcoholic beverages, 13% started exercising, and 9% began to use condoms. One male student and a female student's brother successfully stopped smoking. Although the number of students who ameliorated their life-style is rather low, a substantial number of attendants became conscious of the major health-related issues. The results of this survey indicate that the course provided a good opportunity for students to reflect on their life-style and to evoke an interest in their health.
