A healthy lifestyle is composed of several factors that should work completely. Some of the most influential variables, as demonstrated by research, are: eating habits, physical activity, quality of life, emotional well-being, and sleep quality.

The main purpose of this paper is to analyse lifestyles of professors from the Melilla Campus which belongs to the University of Granada, in order to identify the most influential factors and thus be able to plan actions that shall promote healthy habits within the university context.
