Answer to Question 1

Ans: A
Poor people, women, and African Americans have more health disparities based on risk factors and poor health management. American Indians and Alaskan natives have the highest prevalence by population. Religion is not a diversity factor, nor is mental illness.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: A
Heart-healthy diets include high intake of nuts, fish, fruits, vegetables, and fiber-rich whole grains, less than 1,500 mg of sodium a day, and fruits and vegetables that are rich in essential nutrients, including antioxidants. Excessive use of alcoholic beverages increases the risk.
