Advertisement: In experiments by a leading cardiologist, people who ate two bowls of Health Crunch cereal daily, as one element of a reduced calorie diet, lost an average of ten pounds and reduced many of their risk factors for heart disease. This shows that eating Health Crunch cereal is an effective way to improve your health.
The advertisement's argument is most vulnerable to criticism on which of the following grounds?
A. It confuses a statement that would support the argument's conclusion with a statement that is supported by the argument's conclusion.
B. It confuses two possible meanings of an ambiguous term.
C. It uses value-laden language unrelated to the argument's reasoning in order to influence the reader's opinion.
D. The conclusion assumes an explanation for the experimental results that is no better supported by the reported data than other explanation that is at least as probable.
E. It overlooks the possibility that an effective way to achieve a result may be neither necessary to achieve that result nor the most effective way to do so.

Conclusion (let's call this conclusion ''Statement A'' for easier reference): eating Health Crunch cereal is an effective way to improve your health.
A. It confuses a statement that would support the argument's conclusion with a statement that is supported by the argument's conclusion.
B. It confuses two possible meanings of an ambiguous term. - the argument does not contain any ambiguous term.
C. It uses value-laden language unrelated to the argument's reasoning in order to influence the reader's opinion. - the entire argument is constructed with premises that support each other reasonably well.
D. The conclusion assumes an explanation for the experimental results that is no better supported by the reported data than other explanation that is at least as probable. - the passage does mention that ''Crunch cereal daily is just one element of a reduced calorie diet'', implying that there may be many such elements that could play an equal role in reducing weight and lowering risks of heart attacks. Yet, the argument goes on to conclude that "eating Health Crunch cereal is an effective way to improve your health", not accounting for other possible factors of the diet that may have played equally important roles. This thought is perfectly captured by (D). Therefore, (D) is the right answer choice.
E. It overlooks the possibility that an effective way to achieve a result may be neither necessary to achieve that result nor the most effective way to do so.
