If a patient has a good diet plan but is confused by packaged food options in the market, what should be done?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Teach label reading and selection of safer options
Nutrition counselling should help a patient apply the diet plan in everyday situations. Teaching the patient to read the ingredient list, serving size, calories, sugar, sodium, fat, allergens, expiry date, and storage instructions supports informed and safer choices. Advertisements may be incomplete or persuasive, so they should not replace label reading or professional guidance.
