Answer to Question 1

C
Feedback:
Protein restriction is used for people with severe liver disease and those with renal failure who are unable to excrete nitrogenous wastes. There is no physiologic reason to restrict protein intake in the other disease processes.

Answer to Question 2

1, I should eat a combination of meat and plant protein each day.. 2, Eggs are the best source of complementary protein..
Rationale: Meat contains complete proteins so do not need to be complemented with other sources of protein to ensure adequate intake of essential amino acids. In response to the client's statement that a combination of meat and protein should be consumed daily, the nurse would need to reinforce the difference between sources of complete and incomplete protein. Eggs contain complete protein so do not need to be complemented with other sources of protein to ensure adequate intake of essential amino acids. The nurse would need to reinforce the difference between sources of complete and incomplete protein. Combinations of incomplete proteins consumed over the course of a day can insure adequate protein intake by the combining of amino acids. Many vegetarians skillfully and creatively combine incomplete proteins to meet dietary needs. It is not necessary to consume complete proteins to meet dietary needs, so complementary proteins are another method to ensure adequate protein intake over the course of a day.
