Answer to Question 1

A, B, C
Feedback:
A food's glycemic response is actually influenced by many variables including the amounts of fat, fiber, and acid in the food; the degree of processing; the method of preparation; the amount eaten; the degree of ripeness (for fruits and vegetables); and whether other foods are eaten at the same time. There is no glycemic indication of food. The absorption of food is more important to glycemic response than how well masticated a food is.

Answer to Question 2

D
Feedback:
Using herbs and spices to flavor food is an alternative to using salt. All flavored salt should be avoided. Smoked meat and soy substitutes can both contain hidden and/or extra salt.
