Answer to Question 1

D
Feedback
A All types of pickles are high in sodium and should not be served to the child on a
no-added-salt diet.
B The child should not be allowed to eat hotdogs; they are considered a cured or
processed meat and are high in sodium.
C Potato chips are a high-sodium food and should not be included in the child's
diet when sodium intake is restricted.
D A no-added-salt diet means that no salt should be added to foods, either when
cooking or before eating.

D
Feedback
A Tender lymph nodes are not usually indicative of cancer.
B A scalp infection usually does not cause inflamed lymph nodes.

inflamed.
