Answer to Question 1

D
Feedback:
Most available evidence shows a link between obesity, especially abdominal obesity and GERD and that weight loss improves symptoms.

Answer to Question 2

D
Moderate alcohol intake may help reduce risk of heart disease. Risk of many types of cancer in-creases with increasing alcohol intake. Risk of hypertension increases with alcohol intake. Risk of stroke is not linked to alcohol intake.
