Gary Johnson, a major star in track and field, advertises a certain brand of vitamin supplements for aspiring athletes. Alan runs cross country for his university and has decided to start a fitness regimen including the vitamins to improve his event rankings.
Which of the following, if true, most clearly points to a flaw in Alan's reasoning?

(B) The vitamins are designed to build muscles for shot put and discus throwers.
(C) Alan's coach recommends a fitness program that includes vitamins and conditioning exercises.
(D) While Alan’s performance has remained steady over the last year, his event rankings have dropped because of the improved performance of his competitors.
(E) The efficacy of the vitamins has mainly been tested on college-aged athletes.
