Restoring the physical and mental health of the young generation is one of the most important tasks of our society, especially now, when the preservation of the nation’s gene pool becomes an urgent need, responding to the challenges of Russian-Ukrainian wartime. The analysis of scientific research on the state of health of modern youth has shown the urgency of this problem during the recent decades, and the problem of deteriorating health among the young population in Ukraine is becoming more and more acute, which makes it necessary to find possible ways to solve it for our entire society and for the system of education in particular, which, in turn, has an interdependent effect between health and the quality of students’ education, reflecting the success of the nation as a whole, that is why requiring in-depth study. In this article, based on the analysis of modern scientific and methodological literature on this topic and the research conducted in recent years, we aim to investigate the existing patterns in the dynamics of the problem of deteriorating health among the youth of Ukraine and outline the possible ways out of this crisis, taking into account the particularly stressful realities nowadays because of the Russian-Ukrainian war, in which we all became involved.
