A 6-year-old child is hypokalemic. The nurse is helping the child complete the menu. The nurse would encourage this child to select:
1. A hamburger with French fries.
2. Pizza with a fruit plate.
3. Chicken strips with chips.
4. Fajita with rice.

1. A hamburger and French fries do not have any potassium.
2. Pizza with a fruit plate should be encouraged because fruit (bananas, apricots, cantaloupe, cherries, peaches, and strawberries) have high amounts of potassium, and a child is likely to eat this combination.
3. Chicken strips and chips do not have any potassium.
4. Fajitas and rice do not have any potassium.
