Question restatement: You would tell a person who did not meet his recommended intakes for the fat-soluble vitamins on one day to:

Option 1: 'increase his consumption of foods rich in fat-soluble vitamins.' Rationale: While increasing intake of vitamin-rich foods is generally helpful, advising a one-day shortfall to immediately overcorrect via higher intake may not be necessary if the overall pattern stays balanced over time. This could be overly rigid for a single day’s deviation.

Option 2: 'get exposure to sunlight to increase endogenous production of fat-soluble vitamins.' Commentary: Sunlight exposure boosts vitamin D synthesis in the skin, but there are limits and factors (skin pigmentation, latitude, season, sunscreen) that affect production. Moreover, relying on sunlight alone on a single day to fix a shortfall is not a precise or reliable strategy for meeting fat-soluble vitamin requirements.

Option 3: 'not be concerned as long as his diet as a whole provides average amounts that approximate the recommended intakes.' Analysis: This reflects the principle of intake over time. Fat-soluble vitamins can vary daily, and a diet that, on average, meets recommendations supports nutritional adequacy without needing perfect daily adherence. This approach accounts for normal daily fluctuations and aligns with typical dietary guidelines.

Option 4: 'supplement his diet with a vitamin-mineral supplement.' Consideration: Supplements can help close gaps but are not always necessary for a single-day shortfall and may not be appropriate for everyone. Recommending supplements as a default after one day could lead to unnecessary dependence or excess intake if not indicated.

Option 5: 'try to consume more fats and oils to get the needed nutrients.' Insight: Increasing fats or oils would not directly guarantee better intake of fat-soluble vitamins and could contribute to imbalance or excesses in other nutrients. This strategy is not a precise or universally appropriate response to a temporary shortfall.

Summary view: The most fitting guidance acknowledges acceptable day-to-day variation and emphasizes adequate average intake over time, rather than reacting to a single day’s deviation with immediate drastic changes or unneeded supplements. The other options either overemphasize a one-day fix, rely on factors that are not reliably controllable, or suggest inappropriate blanket strategies.
