Answer to Question 1

B
High-sodium foods include pickled vegetables, canned soups, and processed meats. Fresh spi-nach, whole-grain pasta, and grapefruit are appropriate low-sodium choices.

Answer to Question 2

A, B, D, E
When an immune deficiency is suspected, information is gathered about the current physical status of the patient, such as her general state of health, infections she may have had recently, how the infections affected her, and how frequently they occur. It is also important to assess for risk behaviors such as intravenous drug use, multiple sexual partners, exposure to HIV, immu-nosuppressive drug therapy, alcohol consumption, and family history of genetic immune disord-ers.
