Diabetic (ADA) Diets: Prescribed to control the amount of calories by controlling the carbohydrate intake.

o High-fiber complex carbohydrates from vegetables and fruits are preferred to simple carbohydrates, sugars, and starchy foods such as
bread or pie.
Cardiac Diets: Used to control the dietary intake of foods that contribute to conditions affecting the cardiovascular system.
o They typically consist of low-cholesterol and low-sodium dietary items.

cardiac (low-cholesterol, low-sodium) diet.
Renal Diets: Restrict potassium, sodium, protein, and phosphorus intake.
o Fresh fruits (except bananas) and vegetables are excellent dietary choices for people on a renal diet.

o Assessing:
2 lb weight gain = 1 L of fluid (24 hours)
5 lb weight gain in a week
Watch vitals, electrolytes, daily weights, and I&O
