Dr. Kline's research on the eating habits of teenagers has indicated a strong link between the consumption of high-sugar snacks and short-term energy crashes in this population. In her study, the group that consumed the most sugary snacks reported feeling significantly more fatigue within two hours of consumption than the group that ate a lower amount of sugary snacks. Additionally, Dr. Kline found that the high-sugar snack group was less likely to consume fruits and vegetables throughout the day.
Which of the following can be most properly inferred from Dr. Kline's research findings?
A) Teenagers who experience short-term energy crashes are more likely to consume high-sugar snacks.
B) Consuming fruits and vegetables prevents short-term energy crashes in teenagers.
C) A diet high in sugary snacks can lead to a decrease in the consumption of more nutritious foods like fruits and vegetables.
D) All teenagers who consume high-sugar snacks will experience energy crashes within two hours.
E) Decreasing the consumption of high-sugar snacks will eliminate fatigue in teenagers.

Explanation:
Inference questions on the GMAT ask you to draw a logical conclusion based on the information provided. The correct answer is not directly stated in the passage, but it is supported by the evidence.
Let's analyze the answer options:
A) This is a reversal of the cause and effect presented in the passage. The passage states that high consumption of sugary snacks leads to energy crashes, not that energy crashes lead to high consumption.
B) The passage does not provide enough information to infer that consuming fruits and vegetables prevents energy crashes; it only states that the high-sugar group was less likely to consume these foods.
C) This is the correct answer. The passage indicates that the group who consumed the most sugary snacks also consumed fewer fruits and vegetables. This suggests a relationship between a high-sugar diet and decreased consumption of nutritious foods.
D) The passage states that the high-sugar group reported more fatigue, but it does not imply that every teenager will have this experience.
E) The passage does not provide evidence to support that eliminating high-sugar snacks will completely eliminate fatigue.
For inference questions, it's important to choose an answer that is a safe, conservative conclusion that is directly supported by the text. Answer C is the best choice because it is a logical deduction from the information given—that teenagers eating more sugary snacks also tend to eat fewer fruits and vegetables—without making broader claims that are unsupported by the passage.

How can we say C is the answer since there is correlation which mentioned but it is not mentioned that high sugar snack can lead and obviously its the best possible answer but expert please enlighten me if I am using too restrictive approach in solving questions.
