What is the correct way to improve nutrition in liquid diet if the patient tolerates milk?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Include milk-based drinks or nourishing soups
When milk is tolerated, milk-based drinks, smooth yoghurt preparations, fortified soups or other nourishing liquids can increase energy and protein without greatly increasing volume. The choice must still respect the patient’s disease, allergies, fluid restriction and prescribed consistency. Simply adding water lowers nutrient density.
