Am I Still In Risk If My Dad S Bloodline Has High Blood Pressure ?
If I am physically fit, but I have relatives who have high blood pressure, am I in risk? If I stay physically fit, in the future am I still in risk if my dad s bloodline has high blood pressure ? Most of my uncles, aunts, and grandma have high blood pressure. I know this is a long ways to think about because I am only 21, but just wanted to know. Thanks
