Robert Roy Britt<p>If you had a genetic disease that could be passed on to any possible future children, would you want to know? Genetic tests provide such information for an increasing range of diseases. Thanks to genetic testing, this writer recently learned his debilitating disease is inheritable, so now he now has to wonder: Would he have fathered a child if he knew she would live a life in chronic pain?

Amyloid is normally associated with Alzheimers. Amyloids are extra proteins and have been found to contain structures that are able to replicate like that of DNA. One theory suggests that this may help to predict diseases that are not able to be predicted by DNA alone. <a href="https://www.popularmechanics.com/science/health/a64380912/amyloid-inheritance-mechanism/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">popularmechanics.com/science/h</span><span class="invisible">ealth/a64380912/amyloid-inheritance-mechanism/</span></a></p>
