Which condition is explicitly listed among groups that should take supplements?

• A. Coronary artery disease
• B. Asthma
• C. Migraine
• D. Osteoporosis

Answer: (A)

Main idea: In nutrition practice, certain health conditions are explicitly listed as groups that should take supplements because disease or its treatment can affect nutrient status, intake, or needs.

Coronary artery disease is singled out in some clinical nutrition resources as a condition for which supplementation is recommended. This reflects the idea that chronic cardiovascular disease can be associated with dietary changes, medication interactions, or age-related changes that raise the risk of nutrient gaps. By identifying this group, guidelines aim to support overall health and secondary prevention through ensuring adequate levels of essential nutrients.

Other conditions listed in different contexts may not appear in the same explicit list in the material being referenced, so they aren’t identified as groups that should take supplements in that particular source.
