Better to assume environmental anyway and err on the side of caution.

Dear Friends and Colleagues
Important news from the world of human genetics. Eric Lander, chief
architect of the search for human disease genes, has conceded that
much of the evidence for genetic contributions to disease is a 'phantom'

indicates-poor-predictive-value-of-gene-tests/
here is the link to the Lander paper:

This is an interesting moment, geneticists and genetics journalists
are going to have to make up their minds: are diseases genetic or
environmental!
yours sincerely
Jonathan
