    It is best to stop eating after dinner as food consumed after dinner "goes straight to fat."

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    This statement is false. The idea that food consumed after dinner goes straight to fat is a common misconception. The body's metabolism works continuously, breaking down and utilizing the nutrients from food throughout the day and night. The key factor in weight gain is the overall calorie intake and expenditure, rather than the specific timing of meals. It is important to maintain a balanced diet and portion control rather than focusing solely on the time of day when eating.

    The underlying cause of uncontrolled Met B is uncontrolled _________

    • Insulin

    • Blood pressure

    • Fat deposits

    • Hemoglobin

    Correct Answer
    A. Insulin
    Explanation
    Uncontrolled Met B refers to uncontrolled metabolic syndrome, a condition characterized by a cluster of risk factors that increase the risk of developing cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes, and other health issues. Insulin plays a crucial role in regulating blood sugar levels, and when insulin is uncontrolled, it can lead to insulin resistance, impaired glucose metabolism, and ultimately the development and progression of metabolic syndrome. Therefore, the correct answer is insulin.

    When reading a food label, subtract fiber and sugar grams from total carbohydrate grams to find net carb grams

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    When reading a food label, it is incorrect to subtract fiber and sugar grams from total carbohydrate grams to find net carb grams. The correct way to calculate net carbs is by subtracting only the fiber grams from the total carbohydrate grams. Sugar grams should not be subtracted as they are already included in the total carbohydrate count.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    The statement suggests that it is not necessary to reweigh or remeasure until after the 8th week of Step 1. This implies that there is a specific process or plan in place, possibly related to weight loss or fitness goals. The statement also mentions comparing the number obtained after the 8th week to the expected fat loss, indicating that there is an expected outcome or target that needs to be achieved. Overall, the statement emphasizes the importance of waiting until a specific time point and comparing results to expected goals.

    Rate this question:

    You must leave Step 1 promptly after the end of the 8th week.  Whether you feel ready to or not, you must move forward on that day:

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    The statement is asking whether it is true or false that one must leave Step 1 promptly after the end of the 8th week, regardless of whether they feel ready or not. The correct answer is False because there is no requirement to leave Step 1 after the 8th week. The statement does not provide any information about the duration of Step 1 or any specific requirements for leaving it. Therefore, it is not necessary to move forward on that day if one does not feel ready.

    • True

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    The statement implies that losing 10 more pounds than expected fat loss at the end of the 8th week on Step 1 is fantastic and a reason for celebration. However, this is not necessarily true. Losing weight too quickly can be unhealthy and unsustainable. It is important to set realistic goals and aim for a steady and gradual weight loss. Therefore, the correct answer is False.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    Egg yolks are not limited to 3/week on Step 1 because they do not contribute significantly to blood cholesterol. While egg yolks do contain cholesterol, research has shown that dietary cholesterol has a minimal impact on blood cholesterol levels for most people. Therefore, there is no need to restrict egg yolks to a specific number per week on Step 1.

    The following food is not neutral on all Steps of MM/DM:

    • Soy

    • Hummus

    • Edamame

    • Tahini paste

    Correct Answer
    A. Hummus
    Explanation
    Hummus is not neutral on all Steps of MM/DM because it contains tahini paste, which is made from ground sesame seeds. Sesame seeds are not allowed on certain steps of the MM/DM diet, making hummus not neutral for those steps.

    Rate this question:

  • 11. 

    If you exercise 20 minutes in the AM after breakfast and 40 minutes in the PM after dinner, it counts as 60 minutes of exercise/day and may be more beneficial than 60 minutes done at one time.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Exercising for 20 minutes in the morning after breakfast and 40 minutes in the evening after dinner adds up to a total of 60 minutes of exercise per day. This statement suggests that this distribution of exercise throughout the day may be more beneficial than doing 60 minutes of exercise all at once. This is because exercising after meals can help with digestion and metabolism, and breaking up the exercise into two sessions may help maintain energy levels and prevent fatigue. Therefore, the statement is true.

  • 12. 

    The sweetener not recommended for use on MM/DM

    • Stevia

    • Nutrasweet

    • Sucralose

    • Splenda

    Correct Answer
    A. Nutrasweet
    Explanation
    Nutrasweet is not recommended for use on MM/DM because it contains aspartame, which can be harmful for individuals with these conditions. Aspartame has been known to cause adverse reactions in some people, including headaches, dizziness, and digestive issues. Therefore, it is advisable for individuals with MM/DM to avoid using Nutrasweet as a sweetener and opt for alternatives like stevia, sucralose, or Splenda.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    Drinking 64 ounces of water or decaf before 6PM does not guarantee that you won't have to wake up during the night to urinate. The need to urinate during the night can be influenced by various factors such as individual bladder capacity, fluid intake throughout the day, and other medical conditions. Therefore, the statement is not entirely accurate, making the answer "False."
