Answer to Question 1

A
Lentil soup would have a low glycemic index. A low glycemic index means that a food produces a relatively small increase in blood glucose level. Lentils are high in fiber which tends to decrease glycemic index. Bagels, sports drinks, and corn flakes are relatively low in fiber.

Answer to Question 2

D
Feedback:
Clients on hemodialysis are restricted to 2 to 3 g/day of potassium to avoid potential complications; however, after transplant and the kidney starts to function well, the potassium intake is unrestricted but remains monitored.
