Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Both of these therapies involve stimulation of specific points along meridians, activating the body's healing energy. Acupuncture is a popular pain relief strategy practiced in the United States today.

Chamomile can cause birth defects and abortion. The woman should be cautioned not to take it. She should also be provided with other suggestions to promote sleep and advised not to take any over-the-counter medications, herbals, etc., without first consulting her health care provider.

This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition.
