A pregnant patient who is a lacto-ovo vegetarian asks the nurse to help her plan a diet that includes adequate protein intake. What instruction should the nurse give?
 
  1. Because you don't eat meat, eggs, or dairy products, it's important to eat adequate plant-based proteins.
  2. To improve protein absorption, avoid simultaneous intake of animal protein and plant protein.
  3. Following a lacto-ovo vegetarian diet will require you to take a daily supplement of vitamin B12.
  4. In addition to eggs and dairy products, beans, peanut butter, and soy milk can be effective sources of plant-based proteins.

Correct Answer: 4
Rationale 1: While lacto-ovo vegetarians do not eat meat, they do eat eggs, milk, and dairy products.
Rationale 2: Plant protein quality can be improved if it is consumed with certain animal proteins.
Rationale 3: Vegan diets, in which no animal products are consumed, often require daily supplementation of vitamin B12.
Rationale 4: A diet that includes plant proteins such as beans and rice, peanut butter on whole-grain bread, and whole-grain cereal with soymilk, helps ensure the expectant mother obtains all the essential amino acids.
