Question

Which one of the following guidelines is not part of the nutrition guidelines for vegetarians as recommended by the American Dietetic Association? a Choose a variety of fruits. b Choose a variety of vegetables. c Increase intake of refined foods. d Include nuts, seeds, and legumes.

Answer 1

c. Increase intake of refined foods.

Step-by-step explanation:

The American Dietetic Association does not recommend that vegetarians increase their intake of refined foods. In fact, refined foods are not recommended for any type of person. When foods are "refined," these are stripped of much of their nutritional content. Because of this, refined foods generally have a low level of fiber, vitamins and minerals. A high intake of refined foods is linked to a great variety of health problems.
