Health care advocate: The advantages of eating fish are many; unfortunately fish consumption in Colton is extremely low. Splitting hairs over whether one fish has less omega-3 fatty acid per serving than other types of fish when the total fat content is low seems to miss the point. Colton's policy-makers should encourage people to eat more fish, and then worry about fine-tuning either the fish's diet or our diet to edge up the omega-3 content.

Which of the following , if true , most seriously weakens the Health Care Advocate's reasoning above?

A. Sales of many common types of fish rich in omega-3 fatty acid have increased over recent years.
B. Heavy consumption of omega-3 fatty acid frequently results in symptoms, such as headaches, and even joint pain.
C. On average, people consumer 5 percent less omega-3 fatty acid today than they did 10 years ago.
D. Most of Colton's population already consume a comparable amount of food rich in omega-3 content from sources other than fish.
E. Many adults currently consumer no omega-3 fatty acid from fish or from sources other than fish.

Option A :- Incorrect
The first presentation is not about the sales of fish rich in Omega-3 fatty acid. Hence, it is impossible to conclude the increase in sale over the years.

Option B :- Incorrect
The effect of excessive consumption of Omega - 3 Fatty- acid may be a form discouragement when considering its consumption, this poses a strong weakness but not to a higher degree for this argument.

Option C :- Incorrect
There was no fact specifically identified to quantify the variation in the consumption between now and then.

Option D :- correct
The fact that there is low consumption of Omega-3 Fatty - acid content in Colton doesn't justify the assumption that Colton's population are consuming other food that contains Omega-3 fatty acid. This seriously weakens the argument.

Option E :- Incorrect
This justification is non- factual, from the question, there are no differences among Colton's population.
