A member asked:
What are my chances of inheriting heart disease, asthma, high blood pressure, or wearing contacts? are these things hereditary?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Anyone's Guess: You have control over most of these based on how well you care for yourself. Asthma can be difficult to prevent but easy to manage if you develop it. Don't worry too much and take good care of your health. Exercise and eat right!
