Answer to Question 1

150 mg/day

Global Rationale: Mg/day = 1000 mg/1g x 0.05 g/dose x 3 doses/1 day. Multiply the numerators (1000 x 0.05 x 3= 150). Multiply the denominators (1 x 1 x 1 = 1). 150/1 = 150 mg/day.

Answer to Question 2

1000 mg
1000

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
