    • Constant Urination

    • Dry Mouth

    If you had to eat gluten-free foods, which of the following proteins could you not eat?

    • Eggs

    • Wheat

    • Fish

    • Chicken

    Correct Answer
    A. Wheat
    Explanation
    If someone has to eat gluten-free foods, they would not be able to eat wheat. Wheat contains gluten, which is a protein found in grains such as wheat, barley, and rye. Gluten can cause an immune reaction in people with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity, leading to digestive issues and other symptoms. Therefore, individuals who need to follow a gluten-free diet should avoid consuming wheat and wheat-based products.

    Which form of exercise helps your flexibility, breathing, and reduces stress?

    • Running

    • Swimming

    • Weight Lifting

    • Yoga

    Correct Answer
    A. Yoga
    Explanation
    Yoga is the correct answer because it is a form of exercise that focuses on flexibility through various stretching poses. It also emphasizes controlled breathing techniques, which can improve lung capacity and overall respiratory function. Additionally, yoga incorporates mindfulness and relaxation, making it an effective practice for reducing stress and promoting mental well-being. Running, swimming, and weight lifting may offer other benefits, but they do not specifically target flexibility, breathing, and stress reduction like yoga does.

    What are hydrogenated, unsaturated, polyunsaturated, and monounsaturated?

    • Types Of Sugars

    • Types Of Fibers

    • Types Of Fats

    • Types Of Carbohydrates

    Correct Answer
    A. Types Of Fats
    Explanation
    Hydrogenated, unsaturated, polyunsaturated, and monounsaturated are all types of fats. Hydrogenated fats are created by adding hydrogen to unsaturated fats, making them solid at room temperature. Unsaturated fats have at least one double bond in their fatty acid chains and are typically liquid at room temperature. Polyunsaturated fats have multiple double bonds in their fatty acid chains, while monounsaturated fats have only one double bond. These fats are considered healthier options compared to saturated fats, as they can help lower cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of heart disease.

    Correct Answer
    A. Calcium
    Explanation
    Calcium should be taken daily to ward off osteoporosis. Osteoporosis is a condition characterized by weak and brittle bones, and calcium is essential for maintaining strong and healthy bones. Adequate calcium intake helps in building and maintaining bone density, reducing the risk of osteoporosis. It is recommended to consume calcium-rich foods such as dairy products, leafy greens, and fortified foods, or take calcium supplements if necessary.

    • Tennis elbow

    • Football arm

    • Baketball arm

    • Baseball elbow

    Correct Answer
    A. Tennis elbow
    Explanation
    Tennis elbow is a condition that causes pain in the outer part of the elbow due to overuse of the forearm muscles. It is commonly associated with the sport of tennis, as the repetitive motions involved in swinging a tennis racket can strain the forearm muscles. However, it is not exclusive to tennis and can occur in other activities that involve repetitive gripping and twisting motions of the forearm, such as painting, plumbing, or playing certain musical instruments. Therefore, the correct answer is Tennis elbow.

    "Runners knee" affects what bone in your body?

    • Femur

    • Patella

    • Fibula

    • Tibula

    Correct Answer
    A. Patella
    Explanation
    "Runner's knee" refers to a common condition called patellofemoral pain syndrome, which causes pain around the kneecap. The patella, also known as the kneecap, is a small bone located in front of the knee joint. It plays a crucial role in the movement and stability of the knee. Therefore, it is the patella that is affected by "runner's knee."

    Which of these is known as the "good" cholesterol?

    • Triglycerides

    • HDL

    • VLDL

    • LDL

    Correct Answer
    A. HDL
    Explanation
    HDL, or high-density lipoprotein, is known as the "good" cholesterol because it helps remove excess cholesterol from the bloodstream and transports it to the liver for disposal. High levels of HDL are associated with a lower risk of heart disease, while low levels of HDL are linked to an increased risk. Triglycerides, VLDL, and LDL are all types of "bad" cholesterol that can contribute to the buildup of plaque in the arteries and increase the risk of heart disease.

    What enzyme does the small intestine not make enough of if you are lactose intolerant?

    • Lactases

    • Trypsin

    • Cellulases

    • Lipases

    Correct Answer
    A. Lactases
    Explanation
    Lactose intolerance occurs when the small intestine does not produce enough lactase enzymes. Lactase is responsible for breaking down lactose, the sugar found in milk and dairy products. Without enough lactase, lactose remains undigested in the small intestine, leading to symptoms such as bloating, gas, and diarrhea. Therefore, the correct answer is lactases.

    What is the most common disorder of the endocrine system?

    • Cholesterol

    • Diabetes

    • Lactose intolerant

    • Hyperthyroidism

    Correct Answer
    A. Diabetes
    Explanation
    Diabetes is the most common disorder of the endocrine system because it is a chronic condition that affects the body's ability to regulate blood sugar levels. It occurs when the pancreas does not produce enough insulin or when the body does not effectively use the insulin it produces. This leads to high levels of glucose in the blood, which can cause various complications if left untreated. Diabetes affects millions of people worldwide and can be managed through medication, lifestyle changes, and monitoring blood sugar levels.

    What improves with more muscles?

    • Your Indigestion

    • Your Health Issues

    • Your Mental Health

    • Your Metabolism

    Correct Answer
    A. Your Metabolism
    Explanation
    Having more muscles can improve your metabolism. Muscles are metabolically active tissues, meaning they require more energy to maintain compared to fat. Therefore, having more muscle mass increases your basal metabolic rate (BMR), the number of calories your body burns at rest. This can help with weight management and overall energy expenditure. Additionally, a higher metabolism can enhance nutrient absorption and utilization, leading to improved overall health and well-being.

    • Below 100

    • Below 250

    Correct Answer
    A. Below 200
    Explanation
    Doctors recommend that your cholesterol be below 200 because a high level of cholesterol in the blood can increase the risk of heart disease and other cardiovascular problems. Keeping cholesterol levels below 200 is considered healthy and helps to maintain overall cardiovascular health.

    • Acai Berry

    • Kiwi

    • Guava

    • Pomegranate

    A. Acai Berry
    Explanation
    Acai Berry is known as a "superfood" because it is rich in antioxidants, which help fight against aging and promote weight loss. Antioxidants help neutralize harmful free radicals in the body, reducing oxidative stress and inflammation. Acai Berry also contains fiber, which aids in digestion and promotes weight loss by keeping you feeling fuller for longer. Additionally, it is packed with vitamins, minerals, and fatty acids that contribute to overall health and well-being.
