A. energy density is a comparison of energy (kcals) content to the weight of food
B. if a food product contains a 15% daily value of calcium, that product is said to be a low source of calcium
C. MyPlate illustrates the 5 food groups
D.

2. Characteristics of type two diabetes include all of the following except:

A. insulin resistance
B. blood glucose levels that rise too high
C. blood insulin levels that rise too high
D. rapid destruction of the pancreas

Correct answer: D

Rationale: Type 2 diabetes is characterized by insulin resistance, high blood glucose levels, and high blood insulin levels. Rapid destruction of the pancreas is not a feature of this condition. The destruction of pancreatic beta cells is more commonly associated with type 1 diabetes, not type 2 diabetes. Therefore, option D is the correct answer. Options A, B, and C are all characteristic features of type 2 diabetes, making them incorrect choices.

3. The parent of a child newly diagnosed with lactose intolerance is being taught by the nurse. Which food items identified by the parent indicate an understanding of foods to avoid?

A. Popcorn, seeds, and any foods containing nuts.
B. Milk, cheese, ice cream, and puddings.
C. Wheat, rye, barley, and commercially baked goods.
D. Eggs, ham, bacon, and canned meats.

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B. Milk, cheese, ice cream, and puddings contain lactose, which individuals with lactose intolerance should avoid. Choices A, C, and D do not contain lactose and are not typically problematic for individuals with lactose intolerance.

4. A client is planning eating strategies with a nurse who has nausea from equilibrium imbalance. Which of the following strategies should the nurse recommend?

A. Encourage the client to eat, even if nauseated.
B. Provide low-fat carbohydrates with meals.
C. Limit fluid intake between meals.
D. Serve hot foods at mealtime.

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Provide low-fat carbohydrates with meals. Low-fat carbohydrates are easier to digest and can help manage nausea without overloading the digestive system. Encouraging the client to eat even if nauseated (Choice A) may worsen their symptoms. Limiting fluid intake between meals (Choice C) may lead to dehydration, which can exacerbate nausea. Serving hot foods at mealtime (Choice D) may not necessarily address the underlying issue of equilibrium imbalance causing nausea.
