    A nurse is providing teaching about iron deficiency anemia to the parents of a toddler. Which of the following should the nurse recommend as a method of preventing iron deficiency anemia?

    Explanation & Rationale

    A. A diet that consists primarily of milk can lead to iron deficiency anemia, as milk is low in iron and excessive milk consumption can reduce the intake of iron-rich foods. B. Fluoridated water is important for dental health, but it does not prevent iron deficiency anemia. C. Fat-soluble vitamins do not directly address iron deficiency anemia. D. Limiting high-protein foods is not recommended for preventing iron deficiency anemia, as iron-rich animal products like meat and beans are important sources of iron.
