Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Limiting daytime napping to 30 minutes or less is a good sleep hygiene practice. Exercise should be completed at least 4 hours before retiring while bedtime snack is acceptable if the food is light and so easily digested. Computer-focused activities are not generally encour-aged as a part of a bedtime routine.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B, C, E
Persons need to know the potential side effects of red yeast rice, similar to those of lovas-tatin, such as muscle pain, kidney damage, heartburn, bloating and gas, dizziness, asthma and that the supplement should be taken with food. Regular cholesterol monitoring will not aid in the identification or management of possible side effects. There is no current research to support the need for regular glaucoma screens as a precaution when taking red rice yeast.
