A nurse is providing nutrition teaching for a client who has hypertension. Which of the following foods should the nurse suggest the client include in their diet?

A. Red meat are high in saturated fat and cholesterol, which can contribute to hypertension and atherosclerosis. B. Cheese often contains high sodium and saturated fats, which can raise blood pressure. C. Fish, particularly fatty fish such as salmon or mackerel, are rich in omega-3 fatty acids, which reduce triglyceride levels, decrease inflammation, and help lower blood pressure. Lean fish also provides a healthy protein source with minimal saturated fat. D. While canned black beans are high in fiber and beneficial for heart health, canned varieties often contain high sodium, which may worsen hypertension unless rinsed or replaced with low-sodium options.
