23andme Your genetic data “Participatory Research” Richard YaDeau Richard YaDeau Genes vs. Environment 60-80 % Attributable to Genetics The heritability of AD is estimated to be 60-80%. This means that genetic factors contribute more to individual differences in risk for AD than environmental factors do. Genetic contributions to AD risk include known factors, such as the APOE gene variants we describe in this report. Non-genetic risk factors for AD include high blood pressure, high cholesterol, obesity, poorly controlled diabetes, and history of head trauma.
