Answer to Question 1

2
Rationale: Peers can have a powerful and positive influence on individual health promotion behaviors. Peers are especially influential when they have experienced improvements in their health that can be visualized by others. Peers can exert more influence during specific life stages. Celebrity spokespersons are often seen by community members as their peers and they do have the power to promote positive lifestyle changes.

Answer to Question 2

A, B, C
Feedback:
Some foods are calorie dense, such as regular soft drinks, most desserts, fried foods, full-fat dairy products, high-fat meat, and processed foods. They are considered calorie dense due to their solid fats and added sugars content. Clients should be encouraged to choose nutrient-dense foods instead. These include items prepared without added fat and sugar.
