Answer to Question 1

A
A low-fat diet is used to treat painful symptoms associated with cholelithiasis and cholecystitis. Gradual weight loss may be beneficial in the long term, but will not decrease painful symptoms. Increased fluid intake and a low-cholesterol diet do not alleviate symptoms.

Answer to Question 2

A, C, E
Feedback:
Level 2 solid foods are mechanically altered foods. They are soft-textured, moist foods that are easily formed into a bolus. This eliminates textures, nuts, and most raw fruits and vegetables.
