Answer to Question 1

The formula is not as important as the reason for choosing it. Any of the liver formulas would be about the same. The answer should consider: amount of protein (and kind), carbohydrate and kcals, vitamins, minerals, fat (and source), and fluid required to meet the patient's needs. In order to be able to give an example of a proper answer for the next two questions, assume a student listed NutriHep as his/her choice.

Answer to Question 2

tofu: soybean curd; high in protein, iron, and Ca if the protein is precipitated with Ca salts.

somen: noodles frequently made of millet and barley. Source of CHO and some B vitamins.

mochiko: rice flower. Source of CHO, and some B vitamins.

seaweed: any sea plant or plants; especially any marine alga. High in iodine, selenium, Na, K, and minerals in general.

bamboo shoots: young, tender, shoots of the bamboo plant; high in potassium, 3.5 g protein and 6.9 g CHO per cup.

millet: a cereal grass whose small grain is used for food; some B vitamins and CHO.

mushrooms: a rapid growing, fleshy fungi, having a stalk capped with a umbrella like top; good source of most B vitamins.

When Gabriel Fahrenheit invented the first mercury thermometer, he called "zero degrees" the lowest temperature he was able to attain with a mixture of ice and salt. For the upper point of his scale, he used 96°, which he measured as normal human body temperature (we know it to be 98.6° today because of more accurate thermometers).

Dogs have been used in studies to detect various cancers in human subjects. They have been trained to sniff breath samples from humans that were collected by having them breathe into special tubes. These people included 55 lung cancer patients, 31 breast cancer patients, and 83 cancer-free patients. The dogs detected 54 of the 55 lung cancer patients as having cancer, detected 28 of the 31 breast cancer patients, and gave only three false-positive results (detecting cancer in people who didn't have it).

Though methadone is often used to treat dependency on other opioids, the drug itself can be abused. Crushing or snorting methadone can achieve the opiate "rush" desired by addicts. Improper use such as these can lead to a dangerous dependency on methadone. This drug now accounts for nearly one-third of opioid-related deaths.

A serious new warning has been established for pregnant women against taking ACE inhibitors during pregnancy. In the study, the risk of major birth defects in children whose mothers took ACE inhibitors during the first trimester was nearly three times higher than in children whose mothers didn't take ACE inhibitors. Physicians can prescribe alternative medications for pregnant women who have symptoms of high blood pressure.
