The answer to question 1

Correct Answer: 163

The answer to question 2

Correct Answer: 1, 2, 3
Nutritional counseling is directed at establishing a regular meal pattern and encouraging an appropriate amount of regular exercise. Cognitivebehavioral therapy focuses on the patients excessive concerns about weight, persistent dieting, and bingepurge behaviors. Many times patients binge eat and then purge because they are depressed. Using antidepressants may help the bulimic patient to prevent a relapse. Vitamin therapy and hospitalization are usually associated with anorexia nervosa.

Correct Answer: 1, 2, 3
Vitamin C is critical for wound healing. Additional manifestations of vitamin C deficiency include swollen, bleeding gums, and depression. Night blindness is associated with vitamin A deficiency. Muscle wasting is associated with calorie and thiamine deficiencies.
