a: Family health tree ~
b: a medical crystal ball

What:

"A family health tree is like a medical crystal ball, says Erin Michos, M.D., a cardiologist at Johns Hopkins School of Medicine in Baltimore. "It's very important because you're able to look ahead at what your risk is for heart disease," Michos says. "A person's risk is much greater when a family member has had a heart attack early in life."
