Read the following passage and choose the correct answer to each of the questions.
The history of clinical nutrition, or the study of the relationship between health and how the body
takes in and utilizes food substances, can be divided into four distinct eras: the first began in the
nineteenth century and extended into the early twentieth century when it was recognized for the first
time that food contained constituents that were essential for human function and that different foods
provided different amounts of these essential agents. Near the end of this era, research studies demonstrated that rapid weight loss was associated with nitrogen imbalance and could only be rectified
by providing adequate dietary protein associated with certain foods.
 

The second era was initiated in the early decades of the twentieth century and might be called
"the vitamin period. " Vitamins came to be recognized in foods, and deficiency syndromes were
described. As vitamins became recognized as essential food constituents necessary for health, it became
tempting to suggest that every disease and condition for which there had been no previous effective
treatment might be responsive to vitamin therapy. At that point in time, medical schools started to
become more interested in having their curricula integrate nutritional concepts into the basic sciences.
Much of the focus of this education was on the recognition of deficiency symptoms. Herein lay the
beginning of what ultimately turned from ignorance to denial of the value of nutritional therapies in
medicine. Reckless claims were made for effects of vitamins that went far beyond what could actually
be achieved from the use of them.
 

In the third era of nutritional history in the early 1950's to mid-1960's, vitamin therapy began to
fall into disrepute. Concomitant with this, nutrition education in medical schools also became less popular.
It was just a decade before this that many drug companies had found their vitamin sales skyrocketing
and were quick to supply practicing physicians with generous samples of vitamins and literature extolling
the virtue of supplementation for a variety of health-related conditions. Expectations as to the success of
vitamins in disease control were exaggerated. As is known in retrospect, vitamin and mineral therapies
are much less effective when applied to health-crisis conditions than when applied to long-term problems
of under nutrition that lead to chronic health problems.
