What Causes Asthma?

The roots of this chronic condition are a million-dollar question—one science has yet to come up with the full answer for. There are clues as to who might be at greater risk for it: namely, children of parents with asthma and children with a family history of allergies, which often accompany asthma. Some research has found that genetic factors account for as much as 70% of a person’s risk of having asthma.
