Answer to Question 1

C
Food labeling information is an example of community support because it is a regulatory measure that supports new health-promoting behaviors within a social context. Teaching, watching television and awareness may increase knowledge, but they do not alter the social context by regulation or environmental change.

Answer to Question 2

B
Strategies used to increase the level of health of individuals, families, groups, and communities are known as health promotion. Wellness refers to a lifestyle that enhances our health. Tertiary prevention is limited to interventions with people who have already developed a disorder. Nutri-tional assessment is the process of determining nutritional status.
