Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

B
Feedback:
It is better to emphasize more healthy versus less healthy when teaching about diet changes. To use terms such as good or bad, or carbs and fats, or calorie counting can result in most clients becoming uncooperative because they view diets as short-term punishment. The goal should be to encourage lifestyle changes to help the client improve their health.
