¿La presión arterial alta es altamente hereditaria?

Existen muchos problemas de salud que tienen su origen en la genética.

Entonces tengo una pregunta aquí.

Si los padres de alguien tienen presión arterial alta, ¿la posibilidad de tener presión arterial alta aumenta significativamente?

Tengo curiosidad por saber si las posibilidades hacen diferencia según la genética.

    A family history of high blood pressure is a risk factor for you developing high blood pressure. Having one or more close family members with high blood pressure before the age of 60 means you have two times the risk of having it also. That means you will need to be more careful if you have family members having high blood pressure.

    It does. This is why if a lot of your relatives have high blood pressure, the risk of you having it will go up significantly.

    Research shows that blood pressure is connected to family genetics. So if you have anyone that has high blood pressure, you should pay attention to yours.
