Answer:

C. If I decide to drink, I should stop taking disulfiram at least one week prior to consuming alcohol.

Explanation:

This is because alcohol is contraindicated in disulfiram.

Mechanism of action of disulfiram:

Disulfiram works by blocking the breakdown of alcohol in the body. If then taking alongside alcohol, alcohol will build up in the body (toxins) and cause sickness.

1. Discuss the three E’s of nutrition. Explain how PDIs fit into the three E’s of nutrition.
cluponka [151]

Answer:

Explanation:

What we call the three E's are the important categories that relate to essential nutrition of humans and those are eat, exercise, and eliminate. PDIs are the set of measures that we use to evaluate the quality of pediatric care. The way that the PDIs fit inside the three E's is that they ensure a child gets a good and balanced diet for the development of that child. A child needs exercise in order to develop muscles inside the body. And it also helps us regulate the food the child eats so that we can remove some food that may harm or hinder a child's development.
