Answer to Question 1

B
Feedback:
The pudding is a milk-based food. The protein can easily be increased by adding skim milk powder to the milk when making. The other options would more likely increase the calorie intake.

Answer to Question 2

3, 5

Rationale: When clients use lithium and restrict their sodium intake, their kidneys reabsorb more lithium from the urine and this increases their risk of lithium toxicity. Increased fluid intake can increase urinary losses of lithium. Alcohol intake increases urinary losses of magnesium. Hypocalcemia is often the result of an endocrine disorder but also can occur as a result of using loop diuretics. Hypocalcemia, urinary losses of magnesium, and urinary losses of lithium are not associated with sodium restrictions.
