Question 1 of 5
A nurse is reinforcing teaching about high-fiber foods with a client at a health fair. Which of the following foods should the nurse recommend as having the highest fiber content?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Fiber content varies widely among foods, and cooked peas top this list. One cup of cooked peas offers about 8-9 grams of fiber, thanks to their legume properties, promoting bowel health and satiety.
Tomato juice (8 oz) has roughly 1-2 grams mostly water, low in bulk. Low-fat strawberry Greek yogurt provides minimal fiber (<1 gram), as dairy lacks it naturally, despite added fruit. A medium banana has about 3 grams, decent but far below peas. Recommending peas educates the client on a nutrient-dense, high-fiber choice, aligning with dietary guidelines (e.g., 25-30 grams daily), supporting digestion, and preventing chronic diseases like diverticulosis, making it the best option to highlight.
