Answer to Question 1

B
Feedback:
Recent evidence indicates that waist circumference may be an acceptable alternative to BMI measurement. In fact, the location of excess body fat may be a more important and reliable indicator of disease risk than the degree of total body fatness.

Answer to Question 2

C
The best way to ensure intake of a variety of phytochemicals is to eat a variety of plant-based foods, including whole grains, fruits, and vegetables. Multivitamin supplements do not necessar-ily contain phytochemicals. Soy-based foods contain only a limited selection of phytochemicals. Dairy products do not contain phytochemicals; herbs and spices may provide some but are used in small quantities and so would not provide significant amounts.
