Answer to Question 1

C
Feedback:
The goal of the diet for critically ill clients is high-calorie, high-protein. The meal of an omelet, toast with butter and jelly, milk and coffee with whipped cream provide the most calories and protein of the four choices.

Answer to Question 2

D
Nutrition therapy for dumping syndrome includes drinking liquids between meals and limiting intake of simple carbohydrates. Drinking thickened liquids is recommended for patients with dysphagia. Avoiding caffeinated beverages and decreasing fat intake is recommended for pa-tients with gastroesophageal disease. Avoiding snacks between meals may help someone who wants to lose weight and increasing intake of high-calcium foods would help prevent or treat os-teoporosis.
