The nurse determines that the client with atherosclerosis understands dietary modifications to lower the risk of heart disease if which food selection is made?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale:
To lower the risk of heart disease, the diet should be low in saturated fat with the appropriate number of total calories. The diet should include less red meat (roast beef, cheeseburger) and more white meat with the skin removed. Dairy products used should be low in fat, and foods with high amounts of empty calories (white gravy) should be avoided.
