Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A 24-hour dietary recall involves asking the patient to recall and record everything they have eaten or drunk during the last day, not over an extended period like 3 to 5 days, and it is typically not recommended for patients with conditions that significantly alter their dietary intake or absorption, such as those undergoing chemotherapy or with severe burns.
