A nurse is teaching a client about avoiding a gout attack. In evaluating the client's recall of a low purine diet, which dietary choice would indicate to the nurse that the client needs more teaching?

Fresh garden salad with fried chicken

Baked chicken with broccoli and baked potato

A pizza with extra cheese and anchovies

A turkey burger with coleslaw and baked chips

Answer and Explanation

The Correct Answer is C

A. Fried chicken is not considered a high-purine food, though fried foods should be eaten in moderation for general health.

B. Baked chicken with broccoli and baked potato is a low-purine meal, suitable for managing gout.

C. Anchovies are high in purines, which can increase uric acid levels and trigger a gout attack. A low-purine diet should avoid foods high in purines, including organ meats, shellfish, and certain fish like anchovies.

D. Turkey burger with coleslaw and baked chips is also appropriate for a low-purine diet, as turkey is a lean meat and doesn't significantly elevate uric acid levels.
