Question 10 • Fall 24 Personal Fitness IC

Shara tells her friend that she wants to take diet pills. Which fact might Shara’s friend provide to change her mind?

Answer
A
They have nonaddictive properties.
B
They can increase heart attack risk.
C
Their labels often promote legal health claims.
D
Their side effects are minimal.

Explanation

Diet pills can have dangerous effects on the heart, including increasing the risk of a heart attack. This is a serious health concern that might persuade Shara not to take them. The other choices describe them as safe or imply that their labels are trustworthy, which would not provide a reason to change her mind.
