There are lots of researches containing information on Indonesian adolescent health status and risk behaviours, but they are not systematically arranged.

This article aims to synthesize results from researches of adolescent health status and risk behavior to get complete picture to obtain pictures of health risk behavior dan health status of Indonesian adolescents. To achieve the objective, adolescent health information in the published reports with special attention to Riskesdas 2007 and Riskesdas 2010 reports accompanied by other adolescent health publications are analized and interpreted.

The results showed almost 90% of Indonesian adolescents are in good health condition. But some of them already have NCD such as diabetes, heart diseases, hypertension and emotional distress. The alarming aspect is the high prevalence of smoking and poor diet which could lead to the high prevalence of NCD in their adult life.
