abstract in English:	This paper discusses the issues concerning health in the education of adults. The starting point for this discussion is contemporary recognition of health in the social sciences; it is identified with the physical, psychosocial and spiritual well-being. Its processual nature is also emphasised, involving the participation of subjective and environmental factors in determining the health level; this allows for the adaptation of salutogenic thesis regarding the possibility of health improvement through health education and health promotion. Additionally, the concept of environmental and socio-cultural health determinants and the issues of a health-related quality of life serve as a point of reference and theoretical background of this pedagogical discourse on health as a subject of adult education.
