The answer is C. been taking diuretics. It's not D. I just took the quiz and D was wrong and it said the correct answer is C.

A patient comes to the emergency room with very low potassium and dehydration. The doctor would want to ask if this patient has been following a low-carbohydrate diet because low carbohydrates often leads to dehydration which means it will remove the water content from the body and leads to dryness.
