This comprehensive NCLEX resource offers 100+ fully solved nutrition-focused questions with rationales, crafted to align with the latest 2025/2026 NCLEX-RN and NCLEX-PN guidelines. Designed for nursing students and healthcare candidates, this guide ensures deep understanding and memorization of high-yield concepts in vitamin and mineral functions, clinical diet modifications, nutrient sources, and patient-centered nutrition interventions. Inside you’ll find: Vitamins & Deficiencies: Identifying symptoms and dietary sources of vitamins A, C, D, E, K, and B-complex (e.g., thiamine, riboflavin, niacin). Minerals & Electrolytes: Covers potassium, calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, and iron—linking each to its food sources, clinical indicators, and deficiency/excess signs. Therapeutic Diets: Includes detailed modifications for patients with renal failure, cirrhosis, celiac disease, constipation, hyper/hypophosphatemia, and cholecystitis. Clear & Full Liquid Diets: Clarifies which foods and fluids are allowed, when to use these diets, and progression to more advanced diets. Enteral & Parenteral Nutrition: Nursing actions when PN bags run out, managing TPN complications (hypoglycemia, infection, fluid overload), and key lab monitoring (e.g., blood glucose every 4–6 hrs). Pediatric & Maternal Considerations: Safe foods for lactose-intolerant infants, calcium-rich alternatives, and essential prenatal vitamins and minerals. Food Groups & Nutrient Density: Extensive food-matching questions—e.g., foods high in vitamin C, potassium, magnesium, iron, and fiber—as well as knowledge checks on protein sources, low-fat options, and plant-based nutrition. This study guide is not just a Q&A sheet—it’s a rationale-driven learning tool that helps students apply concepts to real-world patient care scenarios, ensuring readiness for both clinical rotations and the NCLEX exam. Highly recommended for: Nursing students in ADN, BSN, LPN/LVN programs International nurses preparing for U.S. licensure Pre-nursing and allied health students focusing on nutrition fundamentals Medical-surgical, maternal, and foundational course instructors Tutors and NCLEX exam coaches Whether you’re preparing for class exams or national licensure, this resource delivers targeted, exam-aligned nutrition knowledge that supports safe and effective nursing practice.
