• Abstract:

  Purpose/Context: This article, without intending to be exhaustive, sought to systematize the concepts of Life styles and intervention bioethics as a construct to increase the construction of healthy Life styles. Reflecting on Life styles and ways of living in modernity is a complex task, as the capitalist way of life, as well as social inequalities, strongly reflect different types of Life styles.

  Methodology/Approach: Initially, bibliographical research was carried out in databases and virtual libraries and documentary research, using the categories "Life styles" and bioethics; then, the results were analyzed; Finally, an approximation between Intervention Bioethics and Life styles was proposed.

  Results/Findings: The results are in this framework of observations, the context of bioethics was presented, and in particular intervention bioethics that aims to resolve moral and ethical issues for a fair, supportive and healthy society. A healthy life is truly the greatest aspiration of all. So, without health, life does not have the same meaning.

  Discussion/Conclusions/Contributions: In this framework of observations, the context of bioethics was presented and, in particular, intervention bioethics that aims to resolve moral and ethical issues for a fair, supportive and healthy society.
