    Re: help with information

    For this assignment I would try and think about genetic influences as well as health behavior in that family. For example, think how a person born to a diabetic mother is more predisposed to that disease (this goes for other genetic diseases as well). On the health behavor aspect I would think of what the diet in that family consists of, how is exercise perceived, and overall lifestyle & health beliefs. Those all affect that person's health. Hope that helped.
