How to Simplify • Combine lists for them • Use only 1 method of meal planning • Exchanges, plate method, pick from simple lists, etc. • Focus on those foods with lowest sources of offending nutrients
How to Simplify • Make sure you aren’t over-restricting for patient needs • Focus on foods patient eats and enjoys • Focus on what they can eat, rather than what they can’t eat
Special Issues • Food Group Inconsistency • Uncontrolled Blood Glucoses (thirsty) • Starfruit • Malnourished patients • Salt Substitutes (K) • Obesity
