What should be done so that nutrition does not decrease while changing consistency?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Give nutritious food in a suitable soft or pureed form
Consistency modification should change texture without unnecessarily removing important food groups or nutrients. Cereals, pulses, milk products, vegetables, fruits, eggs, meat, or other suitable foods can be cooked, mashed, blended, or pureed while preserving a balanced nutrient supply. Energy and protein density may need special attention when the diet volume is small. Only ingredients that are medically unsuitable should be restricted, and the plan should follow professional advice.
