I agree that this must be true, but what percentage of people really have
genetic problems? I read somewhere that peoples' health is affected by
quality of medical care 10%
environment 18%
genetics 18%
lifeways 54%
My doctor thinks that lifestyle has a bigger influence -- maybe 60 -70%. In
other words, genetics play a rather minor role in this.
