Answer to Question 1

1
Rationale 1: Provide information about healthy snacks to keep at home, ways to improve calcium intake, and the importance of getting at least five fruit/vegetable servings daily.
Rationale 2: Providing a meal plan is not going to help ensure that the child has healthy meals.
Rationale 3: Sample recipes will not help the mother ensure that her child has healthy meals.
Rationale 4: Coupons will not help the mother ensure that healthy foods are available for her child.
Global Rationale:

Answer to Question 2

3
Rationale 1: Decreased food intake would increase the chance of hypoglycemia.
Rationale 2: Increased dose of insulin would cause hypoglycemia. Exercise causes insulin to be used more efficiently by the body, so an increase in insulin would not be needed.
Rationale 3: An increase in physical activity requires an increase in caloric intake to prevent hypoglycemia.
Rationale 4: A decreased dose of insulin would not allow the sugar to enter the cells where it is needed during exercise.
