Correct Answer is D

Explanation

A. Limit sodium intake to 2,000 mg/day: Sodium restriction is not recommended for preeclampsia as it does not prevent the condition and may cause volume depletion.

B. Limit fluid intake to 1,000 mL/day: Fluid restriction is not recommended unless there are signs of fluid overload or pulmonary edema.
