Answer to Question 1

A
Feedback:
People with primary lactose intolerance may be asymptomatic when they consume doses less than 4 to 12 g of lactose or when lactose is consumed as part of a meal.

Answer to Question 2

A
Enteral feedings for patients with pancreatitis should be low-fat elemental formulas infused into the jejunum to decrease pancreatic stimulation. High-kcal, high-protein formulas and infusion into the duodenum would both increase pancreatic stimulation.
