dc.description.abstract	Medical students are the doctors of the future, who will be considered as role models. Only with proper guidance for lifestyle modifications, can society overcome the currently rising burden of non communicable diseases. To deliver proper guidance, doctors themselves should be free of health risk behaviors and attitudes. Therefore it is worth measuring the prevalence of health risk behaviors among medical students and how it evolves during the course of medical education.
