What information is included in a diet manual?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A diet manual typically includes information on preparation methods to include or exclude in modified diets, such as pureed, soft, or low-sodium diets. It may also include information on specific food choices to incorporate or avoid, but not necessarily focused on what the patient is most likely to eat. Calorie counts may be included, but only if relevant to the specific diet plan and goals. The exact items to avoid when a patient is NPO (nothing by mouth) may be included in a separate protocol or guideline specific to that situation.
