Question: 1 / 50

What dietary recommendation should the nurse include in a health fair?

The body needs 40 mg of iron each day

Consume 1500mL of water from liquids and solids daily

Fats should be 5% to 15% of daily calorie intake

Make protein 10% - 35% of total calories each day

Option D is the correct answer because it provides the most accurate and appropriate dietary recommendation. The Dietary Guidelines for Americans suggest that protein should make up about 10% to 35% of your total daily calorie intake. Protein is essential for various bodily functions, such as building and repairing tissues, producing enzymes and hormones, and supporting the immune system. This range allows for flexibility in individual dietary needs and preferences. Options A, B, and C are not the best choices because they do not provide as relevant or widely accepted dietary recommendations.
