 a. Vegetarian diets contain greater amounts of heart-protective omega-3 fatty acids.
 b. Plant-based diets are usually lower in saturated fat and higher in fiber, which reduces risk of heart disease.

  d. Lung cancer never develops in people eating plant-based diets.
 e. Intakes of fruit and vegetables decrease when meat consumption decreases.

Question 2

The best way to ensure adequate absorption of dietary iron when consuming soy products is to:
