The author hypothesizes that the factor driving athletes’ purchases of sports foods is expensive advertising campaigns. This is based on the phenomenon that sports food are nutritionally the same as normal foods, but cost two to three times more. From the stimulus alone, we can’t tell how many athletes are currently buying sports foods; we only have the author’s conclusion that without the expensive advertising campaigns, that number would be very low.

The author assumes that there are no factors other than expensive advertisements that could make sports foods more attractive to athletes than regular foods.

This does not affect the argument. World-famous athletes could be occasionally using sports foods in private and consequently having no impact on how regular athletes perceive these foods.

This does not affect the argument. It merely reinforces the idea that athletes can choose between sports foods and regular foods at the grocery store.

This weakens the argument. It offers another explanation for why athletes are purchasing sports foods, outside of the advertising campaigns: convenience. The greater convenience of sports foods makes them more attractive than regular foods, despite the price difference.

This does not affect the argument. Sports foods and regular foods have identical nutrients in the same quantities.

This does not affect the argument. Sports foods and regular foods have identical nutrients in the same quantities, so them being able to nutritionally substitute for regular meals is not new or useful information.
