Which food should the nurse recommend for a client deficient in vitamin A?
- A. Orange slices
- B. Steamed carrots
- C. Apple sauce
- D. Baked potato
Correct Answer: B

Oranges (choice A) are a good source of vitamin C but not vitamin A. Apple sauce (choice C) and baked potato (choice D) do not provide significant amounts of vitamin A compared to steamed carrots, making them less suitable recommendations for a client deficient in this specific nutrient.
