Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 4

Eisenberg and associates (1993) focused their studies on assessing the use of alternative medicine modalities. They found that one out of three people were utilizing at least one form of alternative medicine and spending an estimated 27 million on these forms of treatment. The other options were not reported in the work of Eisenberg and associates.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 2

NCCAM defines biologically-based therapies in CAM as the use of substances found in nature. This includes herbs, vitamins/supplements, and organic whole foods. Mind-body therapies use prayer, guided self-healing, meditation, and art, music, and dance therapy. Manipulative body-based therapies use cranial-sacral therapy, massage therapy, osteopathic manipulation, and chiropractic therapy. Energy therapies use magnet therapy, therapeutic touch, healing touch, Reiki, and Qui Gong.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
