Question 14 • Health Science Concepts A1 – EDGNTY-83861 26-27

Jenna does not have heart disease, but her family has a history of heart disease. Therefore, she is more likely to get heart disease than the majority of the population. Jenna’s doctor recommends a diet that is low in substances that are known to contribute to heart disease. What best describes the doctor’s recommendation?

Answer
A
disease treatment
B
disease monitoring
C
disease prevention
D
disease tracking

Explanation

Jenna does not currently have heart disease, but her family history puts her at higher risk. Recommending a diet low in substances that contribute to heart disease is intended to reduce the chance that she develops it, so this is disease prevention. Treatment would address an existing disease, while monitoring or tracking would involve observing her health over time.
