C
A light version of a regular food must have 33 fewer kcal or 50 less fat than the regular product.

Answer to Question 2

A
The best time to begin to adopt heart-healthy eating habits is during childhood when lifelong eating habits are being established. It is beneficial to begin healthy eating habits at any age, but it is not necessary to wait until poor habits have developed or until coronary heart disease begins to develop. Severe food restrictions should be avoided in children and adolescents to ensure ade-quate kcal and nutrient intakes for growth and development. But children and adolescents can still learn to choose foods and develop habits that will maintain optimal heart health throughout their life.
