Answer to Question 1

1

Rationale: A pregnant woman who consumes exclusively a vegan diet should be encouraged to supplement with vitamin B12. Vitamin B12 (cobalamin) is found most in animal products such as meat, dairy, and eggs. Those consuming a vegan diet do not consume animal products, and the vitamin is not in most nonanimal source, therefore it is recommended that vegan supplement be added. Taking too little of vitamin B12 are susceptible to anemia and nervous system disorders. In addition, vitamin B12 deficiency interferes with the cellular use of folate; supplementation would further reduce the risk of neural tube defects. Vitamins B1 (thiamine) and B6 (pyridoxine) are found in grains and enriched flours. Vitamin B2 (niacin) is found in green leafy vegetables.

Answer to Question 2

B
Carbohydrate loading is most effective in increasing glycogen stores when high carbohydrate intake is combined with tapered exercise 3 days before competition to allow the muscles to rest.
