A Nurse Instructs a Patient, "You Can Decrease Your Risks

A nurse instructs a patient, "You can decrease your risks for developing many diseases and illnesses by developing healthy habits and participating in health screenings." The patient validates understanding when he or she states:

A) "As long as I begin to limit the amount of bad carbohydrates in my diet and begin exercising by the age of 50, I probably will not develop type 2 diabetes."
B) "Performing monthly breast self-examinations if I have a family history of breast cancer will decrease my chances of developing it."
C) "I can take responsibility for reducing risks by eating a well-balanced diet and seeing my primary care physician for routine health screenings."
D) "Since I am at risk for developing high cholesterol, it will be important for me to ask my primary care physician for medications to prevent it."
