Answer to Question 1

C
Feedback:
The overall objectives of Healthy People 2020 is to encourage eating a variety of nutrient-dense foods in all food groups; limit the intake of saturate fat, trans fat, cholesterol, added sugars, sodium, and alcohol; and balance calorie intake with calorie needs. The guidelines recommend changing to low-fat or fat-free dairy products. They do not advocate eliminating saturated fats.

Answer to Question 2

3
Rationale: Ergogenic aids are substances that increase athletic performance. An example of ergogenic aids are caffeine-containing pills and bitter orange. Alcohol negatively impacts athletic performance because it is difficult to replace energy stores and difficult to rehydrate. Gatorade is used as to help fluid lost during exercise but is not considered to boost performance. Peanut butter is a high-protein food and is not considered to be an ergogenic aid.
