| Research Abstract |
As an educational program for the prevention of life-style related diseases of schoolchildren in collaboration with schools and community, the following things were conducted : (1) blood examination and questionnaire on life-styles, (2) training of measuring blood pressure, (3) educational classes on prevention of life-style related diseases. As the results of this program, schoolchildren had more interest in their own health. They regarded the life-style diseases as their own problem, and they became more health conscious and intended to change their health behaviors. It was hence suggested that this educational program had a possibility to make schoolchildren lead to their appropriate life-styles. In addition, the blood examinations showed a relation between overweight and increasing insulin resistance. Such insulin resistance should be noted in overweight schoolchildren.
