Review Nutrition Practice Test Questions related questions and content

A healthcare professional is preparing a list of resources in a community where nutritional status is significantly influenced by economics. What should the professional recommend?

  • A. Public service announcement on healthy eating
  • B. Educational programs on food safety
  • C. The MyPyramid food guidance system
  • D. The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP)
Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D, the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP). SNAP provides financial assistance to help low-income individuals purchase food, directly addressing economic barriers to nutrition. Choices A, B, and C do not directly address the economic aspect of the community's nutritional status. A public service announcement on healthy eating may raise awareness but does not provide financial assistance. Educational programs on food safety focus on a different aspect of nutrition. The MyPyramid food guidance system is a tool for healthy eating but does not address the economic challenges faced by the community.
