Answer to Question 1

4
Rationale: The 30-year-old male has completed growing, and should begin to slowly decrease calories by decreasing fat in the diet. The client should be told to increase fruits and vegetable to provide needed nutrients and replace fats for satiation. The adult male does not need an increase in protein, as growth is completed. A 1,500-calorie diet is too low unless the client is obese. Rather than decreasing the amount of milk intake, the client of this age is advised to drink 1 or skim milk to decrease fat intake.

Answer to Question 2

1
Rationale 1: The massage therapist is often seen as an alternative provider, whose services can be used in conjunction with traditional providers.
