Diabetes Insipidus ( 30 Questions)

What dietary recommendation should the nurse provide to a client with diabetes insipidus (DI)?



Correct Answer: D

Incorrect choices:

a. This choice is incorrect. Avoiding all sources of dietary sodium is not a standard dietary recommendation for diabetes insipidus. Sodium balance is important for overall health.

b. This choice is incorrect. There is no specific indication for a high-protein diet in the management of diabetes insipidus.

c. This choice is incorrect. Limiting fluid intake to 1 liter per day may not be appropriate for all clients and should be based on individual needs and medical guidance.
