Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

Fiber is helpful to clients who desire weight loss. It may decrease the risk of colon and rectal cancers by moving waste materials through the colon faster, which reduces the colon's exposure time to potential carcinogens. Fiber may also decrease risk of heart disease by decreasing serum cholesterol levels. Fiber helps prevent constipation, hemorrhoids, and diverticular disease. In addition, it may help reduce dental caries. Food sources for fiber include grains, vegetables, and fruits.
