Answer to Question 1

Adis should check the person's credentials and make sure he or she graduated from an accredited school. He should also beware if the person giving advice is selling something (supplements, book, etc.).

Answer to Question 2

Households with limited funds for monthly groceries tend to buy less of a variety of foods, and the quality of the foods tends to be low in nutrients and high in calories. Individuals living in low-income neighborhoods also tend to have limited access to supermarkets to purchase healthy foods at a reasonable cost. Poorer neighborhoods also tend to be surrounded by convenience stores and fast-food restaurants.
