[Health promotion in adolescent students]

Student health services offer excellent opportunities for health promotion. Besides the contact with students who attend the clinic because of illness, and thus present an opportunity for individual health promotion, relatively easy contact can be made with groups of healthy students at whom projects for health promotion can be aimed. It is imperative that these students, who are the parents of tomorrow, must be educated in health promotion in order to carry over a healthy life-style to a family and thus to the following generation.
