Question

Which of the following statements is TRUE? Select one: a. The legislation in the United States that determines the agricultural and food policy of the federal government is known as the Rural Bill. b. One limitation of using body mass index as a measure of health is that an older person with osteoporosis can have more fat mass and lower bone mass resulting in a lower BMI than an older person of the same height without osteoporosis. c. The elderly are susceptible to sarcopenia, and have significantly higher muscle mass, which is associated with weakness, movement disorders, and a generally poor quality of life. d. To maximize vitamin C intake from foods, you should eat fruits and vegetables that have been lightly steamed or boiled. e. Scientific studies have demonstrated that all beverages are capable of satisfying thirst and can make you feel full, or satiated.

00:01 Hello there for this question.
00:04 Day 1.
00:04 Know which the following statements is true? is it the legislation in the united states that determines the agricultural and food policy of the federal government is known as the rule bill or one limitation of using body mass index as a measure of health is that an older person with osteoporosis can have more fat mass.
00:32 And lower bone mass, resulting in a lower bmi than an older person, the same height without osteoporosis or the elderly are susceptible to scarponia and have significantly higher muscle mass, which is associated with weakness, movement disorders, and a generally poor quality of life, or is it to maximize vitamin c intake from food? that's supposed to be from.
01:14 Let me fix that.
01:15 Okay, there we go.
01:15 From foods, you should eat fruits and vegetables that have been lightly steamed or boiled or eat.
01:26 Scientific studies have demonstrated that all beverages are capable of satisfying thirst, and can make you feel cool and statiated? are that's supposed to be satisfied? i was sure this is why i saw what you wrote.
01:44 Okay, so let's go for each of these points.
01:47 So when it comes down for the first part talking about the rule bill, i found something called the farm act, or commonly known as the farm bill, where the bill enhances usda rule department's ability to support and promote rule american prosperity so i don't say anything about the rule bill so it is not a so we'll cross that out so let's look at when it comes down to the bmi that what is the one limitation of you seeing our body max index.
02:33 Okay, so they bring up factors.
02:41 They brought up certain factors and limitations that bmi has, which is, let me see if i can find it.
02:49 So what they brought up saying, the clinical limitations of bmi should be considered bmi is a surrogate measure.
03:01 Of body fatness because it is measured of excess weight rather than excess body fat.
03:12 Factors such as age, sex, ethnicities, and muscle mass can influence the relationship between bmi and body fat.
03:25 But also bmi does not distinguish between excess fat, muscles, or bone mass, nor does it provide any indication of distribution of fat among individuals.
03:45 So the following examples that they give is like older adults tend to have more body fat than younger adults for an individual.
03:54 For an equivalent bmi and other ones on average, women have greater amount of total body fat than men with an equivalent bmi, and then muscular individuals or highly trained athletes may have a higher bmi because of increased muscle mass.
04:21 So with that, so let me see what.
04:28 So i try to find something that talks about osteoporosis.
04:33 So let me see if i can look that up.
04:35 But it might tie into or be, but we'll go further into this.
04:42 Let me see if i can find something that brings up about osteoporosis.
04:48 Well, what i know, what i've seen is that a low bmi.
04:53 Is an important and modifiable risk factor for the development of osteoporosis and osteosporotic fractures as bmi increased by one kilogram per meter square.
05:12 The risk of osteoporosis in men and women appears to reduce by 28 % and 13 % respectively.
05:21 So they didn't give me much with that.
05:26 So we'll leave this up in the air for now, up until we find something that seems a little bit more reasonable.
05:35 So let's go to the next one.
05:37 They talked about how the elderly are susceptible to scarcopenia and have significantly higher muscle mass.
05:51 So let's check that out to see if this is true...
