Answer to Question 1

A, B
Feedback:
All children and adolescents who are not in the healthy weight range should undergo further assessment of medical risks, behavior risks, and attitudes.

Answer to Question 2

B
The only way to treat food allergies is to avoid all sources of the offending food. Use of antihis-tamine medications may blunt the allergenic response, but should not be relied upon because of the risk of anaphylaxis. Supplemental digestive enzymes cannot reliably digest the offending protein before it makes contact with the digestive system. With allergies, sensitivity to the of-fending protein tends to increase, rather than decrease, with repeated exposure.
