The nurse is providing an educational presentation on dietary recommendations for reducing the risk of cancer

Which of the following food selections would demonstrate a good understanding of the information provided in the presentation? Select all that apply. A) Egg white omelet with spinach and mushrooms
B) Crispy chicken Caesar Salad
C) Steamed broccoli and carrots
D) Turkey breast on whole wheat bread
E) Smoked salmon
F) Vegetable and cheddar quiche


A, C, D
Feedback:
Foods high in fat and those that are smoked or preserved with salt or nitrates are associated with increased cancer risks. An omelet made of egg whites and vegetables is a healthy low fat selection as are steamed broccoli/carrots and turkey breast on whole grain bread. A salad can be a healthy selection but Caesar salads contain much fat from the dressing and addition of cheeses and fried chicken. Salmon that is not smoked would be a good selection. Quiche usually contains high-fat milk, crème, eggs, and cheese.
