Answer to Question 1

B
Addition of 5 to 10 g soluble fiber daily can decrease LDL cholesterol by 5. Insoluble fiber and resistant starch do not have this benefit. Dietary fiber may be beneficial because it may include soluble fiber.

Answer to Question 2

D
Most dietary fat (up to 20 of energy intake) should be in the form of monounsaturated fat. Po-lyunsaturated fat should contribute up to 10 of energy intake. Fat substitutes and fat-soluble vitamins do not provide dietary fat.
