The author concludes that certain lethargy studies don’t settle the question of whether fast food is unhealthy. This is a response to a researcher who concluded that the lethargy studies show fast food is unhealthy. The author points out that even though there is evidence that a rise in lethargy is correlated with an increase in the number of times a typical family eats fast food, the true cause of the increase in lethargy might be a lack of exercise.

The conclusion is the author’s assessment of what the lethargy studies do not prove: “[T]he lethargy studies do not settle the question of whether fast food is unhealthy.”

The author only suggests that lack of exercise might be a cause of lethargy. He doesn’t say that it is a cause.

The author never asserts that lack of exercise is required in order for fast food to be a health risk. He only concludes that the lethargy studies are inconclusive on whether fast food is a health risk.

The author never asserts that fast food is not the main cause of poor health. He only suggests that it might not be the cause of an increase in lethargy.

The author never asserted that lack of exercise was a “probable” cause of lethargy. He only suggested that it might be a cause.

This is a paraphrase of the last sentence, which is the conclusion. The “researcher’s conclusion” refers to the researcher’s belief that the studies show fast-food hurts people’s health. The author concludes that the studies do not prove that belief.
