Describe the source of minerals.

Question 2

Ms. Wooly brought her daughter, Mary, age 16, to the health care center to be seen by the nurse for a referral to the physician. Together, they tell the nurse that Mary has had nausea, vomiting, and headaches for the past 2 weeks. She has vomited almost every day. Ms. Wooly began to cry as she tells the nurse that Mary does not remember the date of her last menstrual period and that she is afraid that Mary is pregnant. During this interchange, Mary appears stoic and does not cry or have any verbalizations. After a blood test that confirmed the pregnancy, Ms. Wooly became calmer. A prenatal assessment was begun. Ms. Wooly answered most of the questions even though they were directed at Mary.
 
  Last menstrual period was estimated to be 2 months ago.
 
  Menses onset began 4 years ago.
 
  Ht: 58 Wt: 125 lbs
 
  Medium frame size
 
  She described her usual dietary intake as including hamburgers, hot dogs, chips, candy, and colas. Mary denies alcohol, drug, or cigarette use. Mary would not discuss the father of the child, nor did she volunteer any additional information. It is evident that Mary has some urgent needs that must be addressed during this visit. Mary is young and will need time to accept the pregnancy, but she must also begin to eat properly to meet her nutritional needs and those of the infant.
 
  Contact the WIC program in your community. Discuss the benefits and goals and describe the positive outcomes.

Answer to Question 1

Minerals are found in water and natural foods. Minerals can also be obtained by eating plants grown in the soil or by eating animals (meat) that have eaten the plants.

Answer to Question 2

An individualized nutritional risk profile is developed for each person, and a specific nutritional rehabilitation program is determined. Goals are increased birth weight, decreased preterm delivery, and decreased maternal morbidity and perinatal morbidity and mortality.

There can actually be a 25-hour time difference between certain locations in the world. The International Date Line passes between the islands of Samoa and American Samoa. It is not a straight line, but "zig-zags" around various island chains. Therefore, Samoa and nearby islands have one date, while American Samoa and nearby islands are one day behind. Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
