The author concludes that dramatic changes, such as switching to a vegetarian diet, may be necessary for people to reduce their cholesterol levels. As support, the author says that moderate dietary changes are often unsuccessful in lowering cholesterol levels.

The statement in question stem provides support for the conclusion that dramatic changes may be necessary by eliminating the option to take a more moderate path.

The statement in the question stem is a premise that supports the claim that dramatic changes may be necessary, because moderate changes often are not enough.

The statement in the question stem does not explain why vegetarian diets can be successful; it just demonstrates that moderate dietary changes may not be enough to cause lower cholesterol levels.
