Why is it important to plan a diet according to the patient’s economic condition?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: The diet becomes affordable and regularly followable
A diet that matches the patient’s economic resources is more likely to be purchased, prepared, and followed over time. Planning can use seasonal, local, nutritious, and less expensive foods without abandoning medical requirements. If a prescription is unaffordable, the dietitian or clinician should help identify safe alternatives; cost does not make disease disappear or stop medicines.
