Lack of exercise produces the same or similar bodily effects as aging. In fact, the physical changes that accompany aging can often be slowed down by appropriate exercise. No drug, however, holds any promise for slowing down the changes associated with aging. Therefore, _______.

Summary
Aging and lack of exercise cause similar effects on the body. Physical changes that accompany aging can be slowed by exercise. However, no drug is promising when it comes to slowing physical changes accompanying aging.

Strongly Supported Conclusions
Exercise is more reliable than drugs when it comes to slowing down the physical changes that accompany age.

A
taking drugs has the same effect on aging as does a lack of exercise
This answer is unsupported. We don’t know whether taking drugs causes similar physical changes to the body compared to lack of exercise.
B
people who do not exercise are likely to need drugs to sustain their health
This answer is unsupported. We don’t know whether people who do not exercise need drugs to sustain their health. We only know that lack of exercise contributes to bodily changes in a similar way that aging does.
C
appropriate exercise can prevent the physical changes associated with aging
This answer is unsupported. We don’t know whether exercise prevents physical changes. Rather, we only know that exercise slows these physical changes.
D
people who do not exercise when they are young will gain few benefits from beginning to exercise at a later age
This answer is unsupported. We don’t know whether the beneficial effects of exercise are different at different ages.
E
if the physical changes of aging are to be slowed, it is more practical to rely on exercise than on drugs
This answer is strongly supported. Since drugs do not hold any promise for slowing down physical changes associated with aging, it’s better to rely on exercise to slow these changes.
