Part 6 Nutritional Standards

Topic: Nutritional Standards
1.         The other country or countries involved in the DRI's is (are):
A. Canada and Mexico  B. Mexico  C. England   D. Canada
2.         The DRI's reflect a shift in emphasis from:
A.     preventing deficiency to decreasing the risk of chronic disease.
B.      decreasing the risk of chronic disease to preventing deficiency.
C.     preventing the deficiency to increase nutritional education.
D.     decreasing the risk of deficiency to preventing chronic disease.
3.         An adequate intake (AI) value is assigned to nutrition when:
A.     the requirement is known.
B.      sufficient evidence is not available to estimate an average requirement.
C.     the known intake meets the estimated nutrient need of 50% of the individuals in a group.
D.     the intake meets the nutrient need of 97-98% of the population.
4.         The DRI value is that which should be consumed:
A.     daily.
B.      as an average over the year.
C.     as an average over one or more weeks.
D.     there is no time element associated with the DRI's.
5.         The DRI report suggests that nutrient supplementation may be desirable for some people.
True    False
6.         The Adequate Intake (AI) value is set when:
A.     there is sufficient data to establish a RDA, but not an EAR.
B.      there is insufficient data to establish an EAR.
C.     there is sufficient data to establish an EAR, but not an RDA.
D.     there is insufficient data to establish a UL.
7.         The time frame associated with the Upper Tolerable Limits is:
A.     an averaged intake calculated over 3 days.
B.      an average intake calculated over 5-7 days.
C.     chronic daily use.
D.     No time frame has been established.
8.         The indicatory of adequacy for a given nutrient:
A.     is the same for all nutrients.
B.      may change as new data are reported.
C.     is based on risk of disease.
D.     is based on risk of deficiency.
9.         Reference weights used in the DRI for adults 19-30 are applied to all older age groups because:
A.     data for groups older than 30 years of age are unreliable.
B.      this procedure is consistent with the RDAs
C.     the BMI for groups older than 30 years of age is the same.
D.     there is no evidence to suggest weight should change after age 30.
10.     The Estimate Average Requirement (EAR) is the daily intake value that is estimated to:
A.     meet the needs of 97-97% of the population.
B.      meet the requirements of all the population.
C.     meet the requirements of 1/2 of the population.
D.     is not intended to be used as an estimate of intake.
11.     Some experts suggest that one's BMI should be between:
A. 22-27   B. 18.5-25   C. 20-30   D. 15-22
12.     According to one study of men and women, the relative risk associated with greater BMI
A. increased with age   B. did not change with age
C. declined with age    D. BMI has no association with relative risk
13.     The results of one investigation evaluating the effect of leptin on weight loss indicated that the weight loss one can expect from drugs currently approved to treat obesity was about the same as that found for leptin.
True   False
14.     Nutrition Education and behavior modification programs are more effective weight loss strategies than are very low calorie diets (VLCD) or low calorie diets (LCD).
True   False
15.     Which disease has the strongest correlation with BMI?
A. Cancer    B. type I diabetes   C. stroke   D. cardiovascular disease
