What precaution should be taken while improving taste in a modified diet?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Disease-related restrictions should not be broken
Taste enhancement can improve appetite and adherence, but it must remain consistent with the therapeutic prescription. For example, a low-sodium diet should not be flavoured by adding excess salt, and a diabetic or low-sugar plan should not rely on added sugar. Herbs, spices, permitted acids, suitable cooking methods, and approved alternatives may improve flavour safely. Therefore, option A is correct.
