A nurse is reinforcing teaching about a heart healthy diet with a group of clients who have hypertension. Which of the following statements by the clients indicates a need for further teaching?

A. Fresh fruits are high in potassium and fiber, which can help lower blood pressure and support cardiovascular health. Including fruits in meals aligns with a heart-healthy, DASH-style diet. B. Reducing sodium intake is crucial for managing hypertension. Using herbs and spices instead of salt helps control blood pressure while still flavoring food, which is consistent with dietary recommendations for hypertensive clients. C. Cola and other sugary drinks are high in sugar and sodium and provide empty calories, which can contribute to weight gain, insulin resistance, and increased cardiovascular risk. This statement indicates misunderstanding of a heart-healthy diet and the need for further teaching about limiting sugary beverages. D. Frozen juice bars can be a lower-calorie alternative to ice cream and provide some fruit content, but clients should check added sugars. In moderation, they can fit into a heart-healthy diet.
