Stopping Schizophrenia Before It Starts

[Liffrea]

The onset of schizophrenia is not easy to predict. Although it is associated with as many as 14 genes in the human genome, the prior presence of schizophrenia in the family is not enough to determine whether one will succumb to the mind-altering condition. The disease also has a significant environmental link.

It should be noted that schizophrenia tends to have a hereditary nature, more so than other mental illnesses, and has a high rate of being passed on from parent to child.
