Vegetarians do not always have adequate diets. Clinicians need to encourage vegetarians to do what?
A) Eat meat.
B) Eat adequate calories.
C) Take amino acid supplements.
D) Eat complementary proteins at every meal.
B
Feedback:
It is important to encourage vegetarians to eat enough calories. Adequate calories are necessary to avoid using amino acids for energy, which could lead to a shortage of amino acids for protein synthesis. You do not encourage a vegetarian to eat meat. It is not always necessary for a vegetarian to take amino acid supplements. Many foods included in vegetarian diets are complete proteins so it is not necessary to eat complementary proteins at every meal.
