A nurse is reinforcing teaching to a client who has a chronic illness about the DASH diet. Which of the following meals best fits the DASH diet?
Enriched cereal in whole milk
Turkey sandwich on whole wheat bread, green beans, and banana
Pork sausage and baked beans
Hamburger, steak fries, and an orange
The Correct Answer is B
A. Enriched cereal in whole milk. Whole milk is high in saturated fats, which the DASH diet aims to limit.
B. Turkey sandwich on whole wheat bread, green beans, and banana. This meal is balanced, low in saturated fats, high in fiber, and aligns well with the DASH diet principles.
C. Pork sausage and baked beans. Pork sausage is high in saturated fats and sodium, which should be limited in the DASH diet.
D. Hamburger, steak fries, and an orange. While the orange is DASH-friendly, the hamburger and fries are high in fats and sodium.

Correct Answer is C
Explanation
A. "A heart murmur is a high-pitched sound due to a narrow valve." Not all murmurs are high-pitched, nor are they always due to a narrow valve.
B. "This means that there is some inflammation around your heart." A murmur does not indicate inflammation around the heart; it typically indicates abnormal blood flow.
C. "This indicates turbulent blood flow through a valve." A heart murmur is caused by turbulent blood flow, often through a damaged or abnormal valve.
D. "A heart murmur is an extra sound due to blood entering an inflexible chamber." While inflexible chambers can cause extra heart sounds, this does not describe a murmur.
