The client at risk for continuing hyperkalemia is going home and says that she really enjoys fruit. She will miss having fruit each day but understands that she must restrict her intake of potassium. What is the nurse’s best response?
A.   “You are correct. Fruit is very high in potassium. I am glad you understand your dietary needs.”
B.   “If you cook the fruit before eating it, the total amount of both potassium and sodium in it will be reduced.”
C.   “Some fruit is high in potassium, but berries, cherries, apples, and peaches are low in potassium and you can eat them.”
D.   “Some vegetables, such as potatoes and avocados, can be substituted for fruit, so you can still enjoy the texture of raw food.”
