Answer to Question 2

3
1. Incorrect. Fat-soluble vitamins should be supplemented as a medical prescription, as D might be for lactose-intolerant women.
2. Incorrect. Water-soluble vitamin C sometimes is in excess naturally; B6 is prescribed only if the woman has a very poor diet.
3. Correct. Iron should generally be supplemented and folic acid supplements often are needed because folate is so important.
4. Incorrect. Zinc is sometimes supplemented. Most women get enough calcium.
