Answer to Question 1

D
The Food and Nutrition Board has published dietary reference intakes in response to the public use of nutritional supplements with the goal of chronic disease prevention. There are four com-ponents: estimated average requirements, recommended dietary allowances, adequate intakes, and tolerable upper intake levels.

Answer to Question 2

A
Proper soaking in warm water softens nails and thickened epidermal cells. Over-the-counter preparations sometimes cause burns and ulcerations. After performing foot care, advise patients to dry their feet and seal in the remaining moisture with a thin coat of plain petroleum jelly or unscented lotion.
