Why is the patient's weight checked in diet planning?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: To understand nutritional status and changes

Body weight is a useful, although not sufficient by itself, indicator in nutrition assessment. Repeated measurements can show weight loss, weight gain or lack of change and help the professional judge whether the diet is meeting the patient’s needs. Weight must be interpreted with height, illness, fluid balance and other clinical information.
