Which is a wrong use of a food exchange list?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Ignoring the prescribed portion size
An exchange list allows a food to be replaced by another food from the same group when the prescribed serving provides approximately comparable energy and nutrients. Portion size is essential: ignoring it can substantially change carbohydrate, energy, and total nutrient intake. Patient preferences can be accommodated within the correct group, and exchange lists can help control carbohydrate. Thus, B is the wrong use.
