Education reduces the effects of genetic susceptibilities to poor physical health.

International journal of epidemiology - 1 Apr 2010

Johnson Wendy, Kyvik Kirsten Ohm, Mortensen Erik L, Skytthe Axel, Batty G David, Deary Ian J

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Greater education is associated with better physical health. This has been of great concern to public health officials. Most demonstrations show that education influences mean levels of health. Little is known about the influence of education on variance in health status, or about how...
