A

The nurse is explaining the difference between whole grains and refined grains to a small group of clients. The nurse explains that refined grains are rich in: A-starch B-Fructose is changed to glucose by the liver C- carbon hydrogen oxygen D-sucrose

A

The nurse is explaining the path of glucose in the body. The nurse can explain that after it is absorbed into the intestinal mucosa, glucose travels next to the: A) liver. B) kidneys. C) muscles. D) brain.

A

The nurse is explaining to a group of college students how the body tries to maintain a steady supply of glucose for energy between meals. The nurse explains that the liver breaks down which substance to release glucose? A) glycogen B) glucagon C) galactose D) sucrose

A

The nurse is teaching a group of newly diagnosed type 2 diabetics about carbohydrates. The nurse explains that a 1-ounce serving size of cooked rice is approximate: A-1/2 cup B-fructose C-monosaccharides D-glycogen

A

The nurse recognizes that whole-grain products must consist of the certain components of the grain. What of the following is one of those components? A) bran B) husk C) stem D) leaves

A

Not all sugars are created equal. Some provide no nutrients and only calories. These are usually added to a product. These sugars are referred to as: A-The FDA has officially withdrawn the propsed ban because evidence is weak B-empty calories C-the action of salivary amylase D-25g/day for women; 38 g/day for men

B

The nurse educator is discussing the effects of the digestion process of starch in a nutritional health class. The class should understand that cooked starch begins digestion due to the action of which of the following? A) stomach acids. B) salivary amylase. C) pancreatic amylase. D) disaccharides.

B

The nurse is aware that one way in which clients can reduce sugar intake without giving up sweetened foods is by consuming sugar alternatives. Some alternatives occur naturally but are not true sugars. Which of the following originate(s) in starches? A-Fructose is changed to glucose by the liver B-polyols C-dextrose D-stevia

B

The nurse recognizes that disaccharides are composed of two sugar molecules. The combination of glucose and fructose creates: A-fructose B-sucrose C-starch D-monosaccharides are absorbed in the body without undergoing digestion

B

The nurse recognizes that nonnutritive sweeteners are produced from a variety of sources. One common sweetener is produced by combining amino acids aspartic acid and phenylalanine. This common nonnutritive sweetener is called which of the following? A) acesulfame potassium B) aspartame C) sucralose D) saccharin

B

A nurse has been trying to teach a client newly diagnosed with diabetes how to interpret food labels and recognize sugars. The client is very upset. He understood about "glucose" but considered "fructose" to be safe to eat without monitoring the amount of intake. Which of the following would be an appropriate response from the nurse? A) "Perhaps you were thinking of dextrose?" B) "You should actually be avoiding glycogen" C) "Fructose is changed to glucose by the liver." D) "Perhaps you should take a note card with you next time."

C

The nurse is aware that the majority of calories in almost all human diets are provided by: A-fructose is changed to glucose by the liver B-Sugar free does not mean calorie free C-carbohydrates D-polyols

C

The nurse recognizes that glucose, fructose, and galactose are also referred to as: A-the action of salivary amylase B-1/2 cup C-monosaccharides D-glycogen

C

A client has come to the clinic with vague complaints of weakness. The nurse notes on assessment that the client is eating a very restricted diet with little to no carbohydrates and is exercising four times a week. The nurse recognizes that this combination of factors may be contributing to the client's problems due to which of the following?

D

No one is going to make you eat it." C) "You can't trust the Internet." D) "The FDA has officially withdrawn the proposed ban because evidence is weak."

The nurse is aware that there are several nonnutritive sweeteners that are approved for use in the United States by the FDA. Most are chemically produced. One comes from an herb. Which nonnutritive sweetener is produced from an herb? A-Empty calories B-The pancreas release insulin to move the glucose from the blood stream to the individual cells C-The action of salivary amylase D-Stevia

D

The nurse is conducting a nutrition class for individuals newly diagnosed with diabetes. The nurse explains that shortly after eating, what happens in the body? A-fructose B-sucrose C-sugar free does not mean calorie free D-The pancreas release insulin to move the glucose from the blood stream to the individual cells

D

The nurse is teaching a nutrition class. The nurse recognizes that the students understand the lesson when one student states that: A-folic acid B-cardiovascular disease C-glycogen D-monosaccharides are absorbed in the body without undergoing digestion

D

The nurse recognizes that a common adverse effect of polyols is the laxative effect if too much is ingested; however, one polyol seems less likely to induce this effect. Which polyol is less likely to produce a laxative effect? A-sucrose B-The FDA has officially withdrawn the proposed ban because evidence is weak C-starch D-erythritol
