Answer to Question 1

Ans: D
Information about the use of herbs and supplements includes the following: they should come from a reliable source; are not regulated; can be toxic in higher-than-recommended doses; and may take longer to produce a therapeutic effect than allopathic preparations.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: A
A holistic philosophy underlies much of CAT. People have a mind, body, and spirit that are connected and function as a unified whole. A change in any part of the organism will be reflected in other parts.
