Answer to Question 1

B
Feedback:
Individuals with dumping syndrome should choose low-fiber grains; mostly canned, not fresh fruit; and nongassy, well-cooked vegetables without seeds or skins.

Answer to Question 2

C
It is important for patients with short bowel syndrome to return from parenteral to enteral feed-ings as soon as possible to prevent atrophy of the intestinal tract. Sense of taste is not usually af-fected by use of parenteral nutrition. Lean body mass and essential fatty acid status are main-tained as long as adequate nutrients are administered.
