When will choosing nutrient-dense food be especially useful?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: When the patient can eat only a small amount
Nutrient-dense foods provide a relatively large amount of vitamins, minerals, protein, or energy in a small quantity of food. They are especially useful when a patient has a poor appetite, feels full quickly, or cannot consume large meals. Thus, option A correctly links nutrient density with limited food intake; contamination and colour are unrelated.
