Answer to Question 1

B
The body needs sufficient amounts of all nutrients for efficient functioning and maintenance. Fiber and minerals are both needed, but each only represents one type of nutrient. Supplements are not always necessary because sufficient nutrients can often be obtained from food.

Answer to Question 2

C
Health promotion consists of strategies that are designed to bring about a change in health, such as teaching a teenager how to choose healthier fast foods. Exercising regularly contributes to wellness, but is not bringing about a change in health unless this is a change in behavior. A wider availability of fresh produce does not promote health, unless the supermarket uses specific strat-egies to encourage their consumption. Information about the relationship between nutrients and disease is simply information unless it is used to promote behavior change.
