Answer to Question 1

2

Rationale: Older adults with suboptimal bone growth as a child or adolescent are at risk for osteoporosis. Women are at greater risk for developing osteoporosis after they have transitioned through menopause related to accelerated bone loss. Fortified milk incorporated into the diet provides the essential requirement of calcium and vitamin D which decreases the risk for development of osteoporosis. Weight-bearing and resistance-training exercise help maintain bone loss.

Answer to Question 2

A, B, D, E

Tips for balancing convenience with nutrition include reading the labels to comparison shop, looking for healthy on the label, stretching the meal by adding ingredients, adding healthy side dishes, and adjusting the seasoning when possible.
