Answer to Question 1

2
Rationale: Hypervitaminosis A may occur when very large amounts of organ meat, especially liver, are consumed. Regular consumption of fish is beneficial as long as it is prepared without added fats, however preparation does not relate to vitamin A. There is no reason to vary the type of fish.

Answer to Question 2

A
Feedback:
The FDA requires a standardized Supplemental Facts label on all supplements. This label is intended to provide consumers with better information.
