BS’s maternal grandmother has hyperlipidemia and has been diagnosed with breast cancer at the age of 70 years old and is currently in remission.BS’s maternal grandfather has a health history of hyperlipidemia, hypertension, heart disease, and diabetes.BS’s paternal grandmother currently has hypertension and Type 2 diabetes.BS reports that his paternal grandfather was diagnosed with prostate cancer at the age of 45years old, and currently has hypertension.Based on the health history presented by BS, he has a high risk for hypertension, hyperlipidemia, Type 2 diabetes, and cancer.Not only does his familial history put him at risk for these diseases, but his African American ethnicity increases his risk as well.According to the American Heart Association (2016), hypertension is the highest it has ever been with 40 percent of African American men and women with this disease.Also, the onset of hypertension has started earlier in life (American Heart Association, 2016).Theories suggest the presence of a salt sensitive gene in African Americans, making them more prone to hypertension with the intake of small amounts of salt (American Heart Association, 2016).On the other hand, heart disease accounts for the highest mortality rate in the U.S. (American Heart Association, 2015).Hypertension, obesity, and diabetes contribute the most risk to the development of cardiovascular disease (American Heart Association, 2015).Although these risk factors are associated with family history, all have the potential to be modified with various treatments and lifestyle changes.include references
