Answer to Question 1

4

Rationale: Saturated fatty acids directly raise LDL-C. Removing the skin from meat will reduce saturated fat content there by lowering cholesterol. Instruct the client on practical methods of exercise for 30 minutes most days of the week to increase HDL-C. Low-fat milk, cheese, and yogurt all contain low saturated fat content. Limit red meats and choose lean meats (turkey, chicken).

Answer to Question 2

C
Feedback:
Standard formulas, also known as polymeric or intact formulas, are made from whole proteins found in foods. They contain complex molecules of protein, carbohydrate, and fat.
