OFFICIAL EXPLANATION
E
Most of the underlined portion is a three-part list. "Either" implies two choices, so it is wrong, eliminating (A) and (B). You can sort out the remaining choices by focusing on the words at the beginning of each list item. (C)'s list items open like this: "to prevent. . . , for recovery. . . , or relieving".
None of those are parallel. (D)'s open like this: "for preventing. . . , to aid. . . , also pain relief". Again, not parallel. (E)'s look much better: "to prevent. . . , aid. . . , or relieve". Those three verbs are parallel, so (E) is the correct choice.
