The study aims analyze the concept of health from the perspective of high school students. The research has qualitative approach, being a descriptive study. The social actors were 36 students in 1st year of high school at a state school in Gravatá - PE. For data collection we used open questionnaire. For data analysis, we used Bardin's Content Analysis, with the formation of categories. We found that students associate the idea of health with balanced diet and the absence of disease, and harmful habits with a harmful routine. Going beyond the construction of this concept, we were able to reflect on health as a system, realizing that it is not isolated attitudes that will lead to a healthy body balance.
