What may be increased when energy need is high?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Energy-giving foods
When a person's energy requirement is high because of growth, illness recovery, physical work or increased activity, the diet can provide more energy through suitable foods and adequate portions. Cereals, pulses, healthy fats and other nutrient-dense foods may contribute calories, according to the person's condition. The number of plates or household features does not determine nutritional energy intake, so option D is correct.
