Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
In some states, when substance abuse of a colleague is suspected, reporting is mandatory. Professionals must be loyal to their patients and protect them from harm. Good faith reporting should not be viewed as disloyalty to a colleague. Licenses are often not revoked when a colleague self-reports or is reported for substance abuse. Health professionals may be named in a civil lawsuit if they fail to report suspected impairment of another professional.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A, B, C
Green tea has been shown to lower cholesterol, triglycerides, and LDL and to raise HDL. Green tea does not affect blood glucose or prevent loss of calcium or viral infections.
