An adolescent who is lactose intolerant
Question 1 of 5
A nurse is planning to teach an adolescent who is lactose intolerant about dietary guidelines. Which of the following instructions should the nurse include in the teaching?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: Replace milk with a non-dairy source of calcium. This instruction is appropriate for an adolescent who is lactose intolerant because it addresses the need to find alternative sources of calcium without consuming dairy products that may trigger symptoms. Non-dairy sources like leafy greens, fortified plant-based milks, and nuts can provide adequate calcium without causing digestive issues.
Explanation of other choices:
A: Consuming flavored yogurt instead of plain yogurt may still trigger symptoms due to lactose content.
C: Drinking milk on an empty stomach does not address the issue of lactose intolerance and may still lead to discomfort.
D: Suggesting plain milk over chocolate milk does not address the underlying problem of lactose intolerance and may still cause issues.
