1. Vitamin E deficiency is least likely among Multiple Choice people with fat malabsorption. those who smoke cigarettes. those who follow a vegetarian diet. premature infants. 2. Older adults may require a supplemental source of vitamin B-12 because Multiple Choice high fiber intake binds vitamin B-12. low intake of vitamin C impairs vitamin B-12 absorption. decreased production of intrinsic factor decreases vitamin B-12 absorption. increased hydrochloric acid production decreases vitamin B-12 absorption. 3. If a supplement label includes a structure/function claim, it also must include Multiple Choice an illustration of the supplement's chemical structure. a description of the supplement's biological function. the FDA warning that these claims have not been evaluated by the agency. a reference to a scientific study that supports this claim

Md.Daniyal A.
Part 1. Peggy is a 68-year-old woman who has worked long hours indoors her entire life.

(a) Living in a region without a lot of sunlight (b) Having a lighter skin pigmentation (c) Limited or no use of sunscreen outdoors (d) Having liver disease
