Recent studies have shown that high-fiber diets are associated with a lower risk of certain digestive cancers. However, these same studies also found that individuals on high-fiber diets were significantly more likely to be non-smokers and to exercise regularly than those on low-fiber diets.
Which one of the following is most strongly supported by the information above?
- Influences besides fiber consumption may account for at least part of the reduced cancer risk the studies recorded.
- People who exercise on a regular basis are decidedly more inclined to choose high-fiber foods than habitual smokers are.
- Smoking and sustained physical inactivity are together the chief underlying causes of the common digestive cancers.
- Increasing one's dietary fiber is the single most effective measure currently available for preventing digestive cancers.
- Any individual who switches to a high-fiber diet will thereby measurably lower their own personal risk of digestive cancer.
