Which of the following is a recommended dietary consideration for a client with preeclampsia?

For a client with preeclampsia, maintaining an adequate protein intake is a recommended dietary consideration. Protein plays a crucial role in maintaining the body's fluid balance, tissue repair, and overall health, which is particularly important during pregnancy.

In cases of preeclampsia, there can be an increased protein loss through the kidneys, which can exacerbate the condition. An adequate intake of protein helps support the mother's nutritional needs and can counter potential deficits that arise due to the condition.

Unlike high sugar or high fat options, which can contribute to additional health complications, a balanced diet with sufficient protein helps manage symptoms and might support better outcomes during pregnancy. A low protein intake would not only fail to support the mother’s and the fetus's nutritional needs but could also result in adverse effects on growth and development.
