Question 1 of 5
A nurse is caring for a client who has a potassium deficiency. Which of the following foods should the nurse recommend as the best source of potassium?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: One banana. Bananas are a rich source of potassium, which is essential for maintaining proper fluid balance, muscle function, and nerve transmission in the body. One medium-sized banana contains around 422mg of potassium, making it an excellent choice for replenishing potassium levels. Wheat bread (
A), cantaloupe (
B), and cheddar cheese (
D) do contain some potassium, but not as much as bananas. Choosing any of these options over a banana would not be as effective in addressing a potassium deficiency.
