What can regular weight measurement indicate in diet therapy?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: The effect of the diet plan
Regularly measured weight, interpreted with the clinical context, can show trends in nutritional status, fluid balance, and response to a diet plan. A sudden change may reflect fluid retention or loss rather than body tissue alone, so weight should be combined with intake records and other assessments.
