Abstract: 
Asked for the essentials of wellbeing, Germans consider health to be very important. Many social-scientific and psychological studies conducted during the 80ies and 90ies have shown, however, that the majority of people is not motivated by themselves to lead a healthy life. ideas and interpretations of health differ widely They are determined by many rational, emotional, psychosocial and cognitive factors. Eating and drinking, i.e. the nutritional behaviour, is part of one's habits. The so-called lifestyle concept is helpful in explaining in which way health-promoting and harmful behavioural patterns develop.
