To help an active client obtain sufficient nourishment, what is the best approach?

The best approach to help an active client obtain sufficient nourishment involves serving foods that the client can carry with her. This strategy recognizes the client's lifestyle and need for convenience, especially if she is frequently on the move. When clients lead an active lifestyle, having portable, nutritious food options readily available can encourage them to maintain their nutritional intake throughout the day.

This approach aligns with the practical needs of someone who may struggle to find time for traditional meals but still requires adequate nourishment. By providing foods that are easy to transport, the client is more likely to eat healthy snacks or meals at appropriate intervals, thereby meeting her nutritional needs without disrupting her active routine.

The other options, while they might contribute to improving nutritional habits in some contexts, do not directly address the unique challenges of maintaining proper nutrition for an active individual. For example, allowing her to order her favorite foods may not guarantee they are nutritious. Encouraging her to sit down for meals may not fit into her schedule and could lead to skipped meals. Serving food in small, attractively arranged portions can be visually appealing but might not be practical if she is unable to remain stationary for meals. Thus, the best strategy focuses on portability and accessibility to ensure consistent nourishment.
