Heritage Health Family Tree

The Health Family Tree is a feature within the MyHeritage platform designed to help users document and track health conditions among close biological relatives. It's a secure, private section of your MyHeritage family site, accessible only to you as the site manager. This tool allows you to annotate health information for immediate family members such as parents, grandparents, siblings, aunts, uncles, children, and grandchildren without altering your main genealogical tree.

To use the Health Family Tree, you need to have a MyHeritage account with a family tree containing at least seven individuals and have either taken a MyHeritage DNA test or uploaded your DNA data to the platform. Upon accessing the feature, you'll be prompted to complete a questionnaire about common health conditions affecting your close relatives. You can then add specific health details, including conditions, allergies, and traits like height and weight, to individual profiles. This information can be printed and shared with healthcare professionals to provide insights into familial health patterns .

The Health Family Tree is available through the MyHeritage website and mobile app, which also offer tools for building your family tree, exploring historical records, and discovering DNA matches .

If you're interested in exploring your family's health history, you can start by creating a free account on MyHeritage and building your family tree. Once your tree includes at least seven individuals and you've uploaded your DNA data or taken a MyHeritage DNA test, you'll gain access to the Health Family Tree feature.
