Abstract

The article features the role of physical activity for maintenance of person’s health and its influence on organism’s adaptive abilities. The modern concept of health is presented. Statistical data regarding pandemia of physical inactivity is included. The economical aspect of increased physical inactivity is mentioned. The level of meteosensitivity as one of signs of worsening of organism’s adaptive abilities is explained. The article includes original research results regarding prevalence of physical inactivity in young people and its connection to intensity of meteopathic reactions on example of students of Kharkiv National Medical University. The connection between physical activity level, adaptive potential and meteodependence was established. Increase of meteopathic reactions intensity according to level of physical inactivity was determined.

Description

The results of the study proved the existence of the problem considering physical inactivity in young people. The peculiarities of studies in medical university especially during first 3 courses related to high amount of sedentary time during classes and home preparations lead to insufficient level of physical activity. That fact becomes the basis of health worsening starting from university years and aggravating in future. Physical health deteriorates accordingly to level of physical activity that is shown in level of physical state, and influences the state of the whole organism as all 7 dimensions of health are constantly interacting. Adaptive abilities of the organism worsen due to physical inactivity that’s shown in decrease of adaptive potential and may lead to their exertion and even failure, causing development of pathological conditions. Level of meteosensitivity can be regarded as one of signs of insufficient physical inactivity as it was determined that intensity of meteopathic reactions rises based on level of physical activity and adaptive abilities. Thus, research of meteosensitivity as a diagnostic tool for physical inactivity and organism’s adaptive abilities evaluation has a great significance for prevention of chronic diseases development. However, current situation with physical activity even among young people is dangerous and needs to be solved as soon as possible, proving the necessity to continue invention, development and introduction of physical activity programs all around the world.
