Passage
Game

The makers of Activite, a natural dietary supplement, claim that it promotes energy and mental alertness. To back up their claim, they offer a month's supply of Activite free to new customers. Clearly, Activite must be effective, since otherwise it would not be in the company's interest to make such an offer.

Question
24

Which one of the following, if true, most weakens the argument?

The nutrients in Activite can all be obtained from a sufficiently varied and well-balanced diet.

There are less expensive dietary supplements on the market that are just as effective as Activite.

A month is not a sufficient length of time for most dietary supplements to be fully effective.

The makers of Activite charge a handling fee that is considerably more than what it costs them to pack and ship their product.

The mere fact that a dietary supplement contains only natural ingredients does not insure that it has no harmful side effects.
