Question 1 of 5
A nurse is teaching a client about avoiding a gout attack. In evaluating the client's recall of a low purine diet, which dietary choice would indicate to the nurse that the client needs more teaching?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Fried chicken is not considered a high-purine food, though fried foods should be eaten in moderation for general health. Baked chicken with broccoli and baked potato is a low-purine meal, suitable for managing gout. Anchovies are high in purines, which can increase uric acid levels and trigger a gout attack. A low-purine diet should avoid foods high in purines, including organ meats, Treasured meat, shellfish, and certain fish like anchovies. Turkey burger with coleslaw and baked chips is also appropriate for a low-purine diet, as turkey is a lean meat and doesn't significantly elevate uric acid levels.
