D

Feedback
A Incorrect. Serving mostly sweets will cause weight gain and lack of proper nutrients.
B Incorrect. Olive oil is a monounsaturated fat which is preferred to a saturated fat but is not an indication that the child is eating a well balanced diet.
C Incorrect. We serve less beef and pork and more eggs and fish such as salmon for protein does not indicate that they followed the nurse's instructions.
D Correct. When the family reports that they have been serving 3 to 4 servings of protein each day as part of a balanced diet that is low in fat and sodium, this indicates they have understood the nurse's instructions. It is important for the diet of a child with JRA to include well balanced meals, avoidance of weight gain, calcium intake of 3-4 servings daily, and low fat, low sodium intake if on corticosteroids.
