Can regular exercise reduce the risk of chronic diseases?
The question asks whether there is a causal relationship between regular exercise and a reduction in the risk of chronic diseases.
(1) Regular exercise is often associated with better physical health.
This statement does not establish a causal relationship even between regular exercise and better physical health (which is not the same as reducing the risk of chronic diseases), let alone the reduction of chronic disease risk. Not sufficient.
(2) Engaging in regular physical activity contributes to overall well-being.
Overall well-being does not necessarily imply a reduction in the risk of chronic diseases. This statement is also insufficient.
(1) + (2) The statements provided do not specifically address chronic diseases at all. All we know is that regular exercise is associated with better physical health and contributes to overall well-being, but that does not necessarily mean it reduces the risk of chronic diseases. Not sufficient.
Answer: E.
