Answer to Question 1

D
Feedback:
Most soups are high in hidden sodium. Fruit juice would be a better appetizer for this client.

Answer to Question 2

An adequate supply of energy from carbohydrate and fat is needed to spare protein from being burned for calories. The intake of glucose, fat, or carbohydrate alone does not prevent protein sparing.
