Answer to Question 1

C
A low-fiber, soft diet is recommended for patients with esophageal varices because fibrous or abrasive foods could cause potentially life-threatening bleeding. Patients with hepatitis A should follow a high-protein, high-kcal diet; patients with cholelithiasis should follow a low-fat diet; patients with hepatic encephalopathy should restrict their protein intake.

Answer to Question 2

B
Feedback:
Nausea and vomiting can be related to a number of situations including gallbladder disorders.
