Answers and Explanations

1. A

In addition to the above-mentioned foods, legumes (including broad beans, pinto beans, and soybeans)
are good sources of antioxidant vitamins and a variety of phytonutrients that often act as antioxidants,
protecting the cells of the body from the damaging effect of free radicals. Some of the best sources of
antioxidants are berries, ginger, pomegranate, sunflower seeds, and walnuts.

2. C

Because most Americans do not consume the recommended number of servings of fruits and vegetables
each day, coffee is the leading source of antioxidants in Americans’ diets. It is not because coffee is
especially high in antioxidants, but because Americans drink so much of it. Their morning coffee gives
Americans nearly 1,300 mg daily of antioxidants in the form of polyphenols.

3. C

Although essential fatty acids are required for human metabolism, the body does not produce linoleic
acid (LA or ?-6 or omega-6) and alpha-linoleic acid (LNA or ?-3 or omega-3), and they must be derived
from the diet. Also known as polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids play
vital roles in brain function as well as normal growth and development.

4. B

In addition to the above-mentioned facts, omega-3 fatty acids are necessary for the structure of cell
membranes, especially in the brain and retina. The cardioprotective effects of omega-3 fatty acids relate
to improvements in blood pressure, cardiac function, and arterial and vascular function as well as
improved lipid metabolism, antiplatelet, and anti-inflammatory effects.

5. D

Scurvy is caused by insufficient consumption of vitamin C. Although it is rare, older adults, persons who
abuse alcohol, and those who eat a diet that does not contain fresh fruit and vegetables may be at risk of
developing scurvy. Along with the above-mentioned symptoms, persons with scurvy may suffer bleeding
gums, petechial hemorrhage of the skin and mucous membranes, bleeding in the eye, hyperkeratosis,
and sicca syndrome.

6. D

Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) is a fat-soluble quinone, a vitamin-like compound that is vital for activities
related to energy metabolism. CoQ10 is the coenzyme for at least three mitochondrial enzymes as well
as enzymes in other parts of the cell and is involved in the key biochemical reactions that produce
energy in cells. It also is a free radical scavenger and is metabolized to ubiquinol, which prolongs the
antioxidant effect of vitamin E. The highest amounts of it are found in the mitochondria of cells of organs
with high-energy requirements such as the heart muscle, liver, kidneys, and pancreas.

7. A
Humans obtain vitamin D from two natural sources: sunlight and consumed food. Solar UVB radiation
penetrates the skin and converts 7-dehydrocholesterol to previtamin D3, which is rapidly converted to
vitamin D3. Along with the above-mentioned foods, cod liver oil is a potent source of vitamin D and
some orange juice, soy, and rice beverages are fortified with vitamin D.

8. A

Vitamin K1 is a cofactor needed for the synthesis of some of the substances that help blood to clot. In
adults, low dietary intake of vitamin K may be the result of chronic illness, malnutrition, alcoholism,
multiple abdominal surgeries, long-term parenteral nutrition, malabsorption, gallbladder disease, liver
disease, cystic fibrosis, inflammatory bowel disease, and long-term use of drugs such as antibiotics and
cholestyramine, which binds to bile acids, preventing fat-soluble vitamin absorption.

9. B

Probiotics protect against harmful bacteria in the following ways: by penetrating and binding to the
surfaces of harmful organisms; by stimulating the lining of the digestive tract to prevent penetration by
pathogens; and by modifying immunoregulation. Probiotics have been shown to relieve temporary
abdominal bloating and to reduce intestinal gas.

10. C

Prebiotics are primarily oligosaccharides-short chains of sugar molecules that can only partially be
digested. Most naturally occurring oligosaccharides are found in plants. Prebiotics are often called
bifidogenic factors because they primarily stimulate growth of bifidobacteria. Prebiotics work in concert
with probiotics and have been found to produce many of the same health benefits.

11. B

Beri-beri is rarely seen in the United States because many foods are fortified with thiamine. Persons at
risk of developing beri-beri include those who abuse alcohol, persons on dialysis, and those taking high
doses of diuretics as well as infants breastfed by mothers who lack sufficient thiamine.

12. D

Trigeminal neuralgia is characterized by sudden onset of severe pain that lasts less than a minute. It
presents most commonly in persons age 50 and older and among women. The frequency and severity of
attacks recurs and remits, progressively worsening over time. While the disorder may be debilitating, it is
not life threatening.

13. A

Tourette Syndrome is characterized by tics – repetitive, involuntary behaviors, vocalizations and

movements such as eye blinking, grimacing and shrugging, or jerky muscle movements. Tics also may
include self-harm such as repetitively punching oneself as well as coprolalia and echolalia. Persons with
Tourette syndrome frequently suffer behavioral problems such as hyperactivity, impulsivity, attention
disorders, and repetitive behaviors.

14. B

The USDA Dietary Guidelines suggest that most dietary fats should be obtained from sources of
polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fatty acids, such as fish, nuts, and vegetable oils. The Guidelines
also advise limiting intake of fats and oils high in saturated and/or trans fatty acids.

15. C

In addition to the above-mentioned actions, vitamin B3, also known as niacin or nicotinic acid, is a water-
soluble vitamin that is necessary for cell respiration and supports the circulation, skin, nervous system,
and secretion of bile. Insufficient niacin intake is associated with symptoms such as canker sores,
depression, fatigue, indigestion, weakness, skin problems, and inflammation. Chronic niacin deficiency is
called pellagra.

16. D

The average American consumes about 50% more sodium than the 2,300 mg per day recommended in
the Dietary Guidelines for Americans. Excessive sodium consumption is associated with increased risk for
hypertension, which is associated with increased risk of developing cardiovascular disease.

17. C

Long-term inadequate intake of calcium is associated with low bone mass, rapid bone loss, and high risk
of fracture. In addition to the above-mentioned risk factors, chronic use of glucocorticoids, some
anticonvulsants, inactivity, smoking, and changes in sex hormones such as amenorrhea, menopause, and
low testosterone may increase the risk for osteoporosis.
18. D

Low carbohydrate diets promote ketosis, the process of breaking down fat as opposed to carbohydrate
to generate energy. Ketones are acidic chemicals, which can build up in the blood and urine. Diet-
induced ketosis may be intentional as a treatment for some people with epilepsy, however, for some
people, long-term adherence to a very low carbohydrate diet may produce damage to the liver and
kidneys.

19. D

Along with the above-mentioned characteristics, successful dieters monitor their weight, practice
portion control, increase physical activity, and aim for healthy realistic weight loss ranging from 10% to
20% of initial bodyweight in a year. Successful dieters maintain their motivation by celebrating the
achievement of weight-loss milestones

20. D

In addition to the above-mentioned populations, supplemental iron may be given to treat anemia that
occurs during pregnancy or as a result of heavy menstrual periods, kidney disease, or chemotherapy.
Supplemental iron also may be recommended for vegetarians and women who are lactating. Iron
requirements decrease for post-menopausal women.

Healthy Food Quiz: Questions and Answers to Help You Fight Disease

Most people know that calcium is good for bones, fiber is good for constipation, and iron is good for
blood, to name a few. But once you go beyond the basics, the picture gets murky.

Here’s a healthy food quiz (questions and answers included) to see how well you know which foods or
nutrients can prevent or promote which diseases.

Feel free to cheat. The healthy food quiz questions and answers aren’t really a test of how well you read
(and remember) every issue of Nutrition Action. They’re just a sneaky way to get you to look at the
answers, which contain a wealth of information on how your diet affects your health.

The Healthy Food Quiz: Answers

1. c (whole-grain bread). The DASH study (Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension) showed that a
lower-fat diet rich in fruits, vegetables, and low-fat dairy foods can lower blood pressure. Researchers
aren’t sure whether the potassium, magnesium, calcium, protein, fiber, or other nutrients made the
difference.

2. d (irritable bowel syndrome). Studies suggest that vitamin D may reduce the risk of bone loss, gum
disease, multiple sclerosis, and colon cancer.

Shoot for 400 IU a day (600 IU if you’re over 70). Good sources include multivitamins, calcium+D
supplements, milk, and some yogurts, breads, breakfast cereals, margarines, and orange juices. Sunlight
is also a good source, but not in the winter north of the line that connects Los Angeles and Atlanta.

3. e (orange juice). To dodge diabetes, stay lean and exercise. Studies also find a lower risk in people who
drink alcoholic beverages in modest amounts (1 or 2 drinks a day for men; half a drink for women), as
well as those who eat nuts, whole grains, and unsaturated fats (like the oils in salad dressing). Processed
red meats (like bacon, hot dogs, and sausage), trans-fat-laden foods (like French fries, fried chicken, and
pie crust), and sweets may raise diabetes risk.

4. a (lean meat). Meat eaters seem to have a higher risk of colon cancer, even if the meat is lean. Foods
that are high in magnesium (like beans, whole grains, and leafy greens) or calcium (like milk, yogurt, and
cheese) seem to protect the colon. So do multivitamins (perhaps because they contain the B-vitamin
folic acid) and exercise.

5. c (olive oil). Foods high in calcium (like milk, cheese, and yogurt), vitamin K (like collards, spinach, and
broccoli), potassium (like fruits and vegetables), and vitamin D help strengthen your bones. The best
sources of vitamin D are sunshine, a multivitamin, or a calcium+D supplement (see answer #2). Weight-
bearing exercise (almost any activity but swimming) also protects bones and may help prevent falls by
boosting balance, coordination, and strength.

6. d (mayonnaise). Fruits and vegetables (like berries, lettuce, and sprouts) can be contaminated in the
fields by tainted water or manure. Contaminated poultry, beef, and eggs may cause infections when
they’re undercooked. Commercial mayonnaise is pasteurized, so it’s relatively safe. (Homemade mayo is
another story.)

7. a (osteoarthritis). Meat appears to increase the risk of gout because it’s rich in a compound called
purine. It’s not clear why people who eat more red meat have a higher risk of non- Hodgkins lymphoma,
diabetes, and colon cancer. People who eat more red meat (and less poultry, fish, fruits, vegetables, etc.)
also have a higher risk of heart disease.

How’d you do?

Get half the healthy food quiz questions and answers wrong? Congratulations. You did better than most
people we tested. Look at it this way: had you aced the test, you wouldn’t have learned anything.
