Sažetak

Nowadays, the increasing use of information and mobile technologies and the ignorance of their health risk for consumers provoked this study. The investigation was oriented to an evaluation of the negative effects of excessive use of mobile phones within the students and the assessment of their wellness/health prevention culture. The results outlined the negative impact of GSM daily use on mental and physical level of consumers as memory and attention problems, psycho-emotional stress, headache, insomnia, etc. and on the other hand, lack of information about the impact of mobile technology on human health. The young generation would pay attention to balance between developing mobile technology and health condition. The assessed abilities of wellness tourism as an anti-stress therapy are described in finding the golden mean between information technology, health condition and quality of life. The possibilities of wellness tourism to improve health and quality of life of students are in line with main social effect for young people – a positive representation of person with good social communication and constructive solutions for life challenges.
