UNINTENDED
PREGNANCY, HIV
INFECTION and other
 SEXUAL
BEHAVIOR
 Sexual Behaviors are behaviors
that involve parts of the body
considered to be “private” or
“sexual”
 These behaviors may be referred to
as “sex play,” and are normally part

semen. 
Having unprotected sex
Multiple sex partners

needles
From mother to child during

*The only way to be absolutely certain you do not become

infected with HIV is to not have sex and not use injection
 Sexually Transmitted Disease
(STD’s) are infections that are
passed from one person to
another through sexual contact.
The contact is usually vaginal,
oral, or anal sex.
 Chlamydia
 is a common STD that can cause infection
among both men and women. It can cause
permanent damage to a woman’s
reproductive system.
 Gonorrhea

bacterium Neisseria gonorrhoeae. Untreated
gonorrhea can lead to long-term health concerns and,
in some cases, of infertility.

 Schools and Youth Serving Organizations Can Help school health programs can help
young people adopt lifelong attitudes and behaviors that support their health and well-
being including behaviors that can reduce their risk for HIV and other STDs.

 HIV, STD, and teen pregnancy prevention programs in schools should

1. Provide health information that is basic, accurate, and directly contributes to health-
promoting decisions and behaviors.
2. Ensure that all youth are provided with effective education and skills to protect
themselves and others from HIV infection, other STDs, and pregnancy.
DIETARY PATTERNS
that CONTRIBUTE to
DISEASE
 The fifth category of risk behaviors in
today’s student are causes by dietary
patterns which contribute to disease.
Poor eating patterns
increase the risk of diet-
related chronic disease.
 Good nutrition is essential to keeping current and future
generations healthy across the lifespan. A healthy diet helps
children grow and develop properly and reduces their risk of
chronic diseases.
 Adults who eat a healthy diet live longer and have a lower
risk of obesity, heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and certain
cancers. Healthy eating can help people with chronic
diseases manage these conditions and avoid complications.
 However, when healthy options are not available, people
may settle for foods that are higher in calories and lower in
nutritional value. People in low-income communities and
some racial and ethnic groups often lack access to
convenient places that offer affordable, healthier foods.
The Harmful Effects of
Poor Nutrition
 Obesity
is a chronic physical condition characterized by too
much body fat, which result in high risk for health
problems such as high blood pressure, high blood
cholesterol, diabetes, heart disease and stroke.
 Cancer
 Anyone of a group of diseases that occur
when cells in the body become abnormal and
have the potential to spread and establish
growth in nearby tissues and other parts of
the body
 Diabetes
 isa disease that develops when the body is
unable to produce or respond to insulin
hormone in the normal way.
 Osteoporosis
 Disease characterized by low bone mass and
deterioration of bone tissue, which leads to fragile
bones and a greater risk of fracture, particularly in
older people
Healthy Diet Can Prevent Weight
Gain and Chronic Disease
 Choose minimally processed, whole foods-
whole grains, vegetables, fruits, nuts,
healthful sources of protein (fish, poultry,
beans), and plant oils.
 Limit sugared beverages, refined grains,
potatoes, red and processed meats, and other
highly processed foods, such as fast food.
