Answer to Question 1

ANS: F

Answer to Question 2

ANS: Soybeans and soy products are a big part of all vegetarian diets, especially vegan diets since soy is a well-known complete protein. However, a well-balanced diet consisting of the proper mix of other plant proteins, grains, legumes, cereals, pasta, etc., should provide Fred with his needs for protein and essential vitamins and minerals. The practice of mixing or combining plant proteins to make complete proteins is called complementing proteins. Suggest that Fred make an appointment with a Registered Dietitian (RD. to discuss his dietary needs.
