Answer:
The nutrition therapy goals for the individual with diabetes have evolved and have become more flexible and patient centered. The goals from the American Diabetes Association (ADA) 2019 include the following: (2)
1.
To promote and support healthful eating patterns, emphasizing a variety of nutrient dense foods in appropriate portion sizes in order to improve overall health and:
➢
Achieve and maintain body weight goals
➢
Attain individualized glycemic, blood pressure, and lipid goals
➢
Delay or prevent complications of diabetes
2.
To address individual nutrition needs based on personal and cultural preferences, health literacy and numeracy, access to healthful food choices, willingness and ability to make behavioral changes, as well as barriers to change
3.
To maintain the pleasure of eating by providing nonjudgmental messages about food choices
4.
To provide an individual with diabetes the practical tools for day-to-day meal planning rather than focusing on individual macronutrients, micronutrients or single foods
The American Association of Clinical Endocrinologists (AACE) guidelines have similar goals for people with type 2 diabetes. (3)
Answer:
false
Explanation:
this goes for identical twins: identical twins can have the same level of gene within the genome but they are genetically not identical.
this is due to different stages of cell division that occur during embryo development.
A vocation characterized by a specialized body of knowledge of medicine that its members must teach and expand, by a code of ethics and a duty of service that put patient care above self-interest, and by the privilege of self-regulation granted by society.Occupational medicine (also known as “occupational health”) is focused on the treatment of work-related injuries and illnesses. Physicians trained in occupational medicine diagnose and treat work-related injuries much more effectively than most primary care physicians.
Answer:
An alteration in DNA that occurs after conception. Somatic mutations can occur in any of the cells of the body except the germ cells (sperm and egg) and therefore are not passed on to children. These alterations can (but do not always) cause cancer or other diseases.
Explanation:
when a skin stem cell harbors a cancer-driving mutation, it becomes more likely to generate two specialized skin cells when it divides. Over time, the mutated skin stem cell fails to renew itself and turns into cells that eventually slough off, allowing the skin to expel mutated cells as needed.
Errors in DNA copying during cell division and development can cause new mutations — called de novo mutations — at any time from the moment of conception. Mutations that occur in the germ line — the cells that develop into sperm or eggs — can be passed on to the next generation and, perhaps, cause disease in children.
