Answer to Question 1

B
The dietary factor that has the greatest impact on blood cholesterol levels is saturated fat intake because it causes the body to make more cholesterol. Cholesterol intake has less impact because most cholesterol is manufactured by the body. Blood cholesterol levels may be slightly inversely related to intake of monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fat.

Answer to Question 2

1
Rationale: Caffeine can be found in coffee, tea, soft drinks, chocolate, energy drinks, and medicine. Caffeine content on these products will be listed on the ingredient list or content label and should be checked prior to use. Overuse of caffeine can cause serious health problems. Caffeine is a central nervous system stimulant and can cause people to feel irritable and/or shaky. Medications containing caffeine include (but are not limited to) analgesics, cold remedies, and stimulants.
