Answer to Question 1

Maintain healthy glucose levels, maintain normal blood pressure, and maintain healthy lipid levels. Also, because approximately 80 of type 2 clients are overweight, these clients may be placed on weight reduction diets to help achieve blood glucose levels that are within acceptable range. Thus, monitoring their weight loss also becomes part of their therapy.

Answer to Question 2

Iron must be chemically changed to ferrous iron prior to absorption. This chemical action occurs in the stomach through the action of hydrochloric acid. Absorption can be enhanced by consuming foods with vitamin C at the same time as a food rich in iron. Vitamin C keeps the iron in the correct form for absorption. A meat protein factor is found in meat, poultry, and fish that also aids in the absorption of iron.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
