Answer to Question 1

The lower kcal feeding with fiber is less concentrated with 1.06 kcals/cc vs 2 kcals/cc, less protein with 36.6 g/L vs 83.7 g/L, has fiber (14.4 g/L), and has more free water.

Answer to Question 2

I would inform Mr. F about the laws, or lack of laws, regulating supplements and would point out some of the dangers of taking the wrong supplements, using aspirin, garlic, and vitamin E as an example. I would further explain the training of a dietitian and encourage him to seek professional advice.
