Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Hispanic women have the highest incidence rate of metabolic syndrome at 27. Asian men, African American men, and white women are not at the highest risk for metabolic syndrome.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
Stress reduction is important in the management of metabolic syndrome. Twenty minutes of exercise is not adequate. Alcohol intake needs to be restricted but does not have to be eliminated. Complex carbohydrates are appropriate in the management of metabolic syndrome.
