Question

Following is not a method of nutritional assessment using biochemical method

A.

Urinary iodine

B.

Hemoglobin estimation

C.

Blood pressure

D.

More than one of the above

E.

None of the above

Correct option is C

Blood pressure is not a method of nutritional assessment using biochemical methods. Biochemical methods focus on assessing various biomarkers in bodily fluids (like blood, urine, etc.) to evaluate nutritional status. Urinary iodine and hemoglobin estimation are both biochemical methods used to assess nutrition:

  • Urinary iodine is used to assess iodine deficiency, an important micronutrient.
  • Hemoglobin estimation is used to assess anemia, often related to iron deficiency.

Information Booster:

  • Urinary iodine is used to determine iodine deficiency, which is a major cause of thyroid problems. It is a biochemical test as iodine is excreted through urine.
  • Hemoglobin estimation is a biochemical test used to detect anemia, which can result from deficiencies in iron, vitamin B12, or folate.

Additional Knowledge (Incorrect Options):

  • (a) Urinary iodine: This is a correct biochemical method for nutritional assessment, particularly for detecting iodine deficiency.
  • (b) Hemoglobin estimation: This is also a biochemical method for assessing iron deficiency and anemia.
  • (d) More than one of the above: This is incorrect because blood pressure is the only incorrect option.
  • (e) None of the above: This is incorrect because blood pressure is not a biochemical method.
