Why is a clear liquid diet not given for a long time?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: It has limited nutrition
A clear liquid diet contains a narrow range of foods and usually supplies limited energy, protein, fibre, vitamins, and minerals. It is therefore commonly used for a short period, such as around a procedure or during temporary digestive intolerance. Prolonged use may not meet nutritional needs unless medically supplemented and monitored. Option B is correct.
