What can help improve a patient’s appetite?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Small, attractive, and timely meals
Small meals served regularly can be less tiring and easier to tolerate than one large meal. Attractive colour, pleasant smell, suitable temperature, clean presentation, and a calm environment may also stimulate appetite. The food must remain appropriate for the illness, because appearance alone cannot replace nutritional or therapeutic requirements.
