Answer to Question 1

B
Prevention of the development of type 2 diabetes before the disorder develops is considered pri-mary prevention. Secondary prevention involves early detection to halt and minimize the effects of the disease, and tertiary prevention minimizes complications and helps restore health after the disorder has developed. Primary treatment is not a recognized term.

Answer to Question 2

A
Healthy People 2020 focuses on targets and goals for improving the health of the nation. The nurse would check the Dietary Reference Intakes for information about dietary standards. The Dietary Guidelines for Americans and MyPyramid are separate documents from Healthy People 2020.
