(A) There are other products on the market that are advertised as providing fiber as a dietary supplement.

(C) It is possible to become addicted to some kinds of advertised pills, such as sleeping pills and painkillers.
(D) The label of the advertised product recommends taking 3 pills every day.
(E) The recommended daily intake of fiber is 20 to 30 grams, and the pill contains one-third gram.

“44 percent fiber” 没有说明是什么的44 percent，就会造成误解：有可能是必须摄取量的44%,也有可能标准含量的44%或者其它的。如果是前者，说明这种fiber-supplement没有满足日常身体需要。

可是这和选项E有什么关系啊？

这是题目的要求：The advertising claim is misleading in its selection of information on which to focus if which one of the following is true?
如果下列哪个是真，这个claim即 it contains 44 percent fiber会使人误解？

E 所说如果是真的，就会使人误解。

44% Vs. eat more fiber ==> percentage is different with the " number"

Doctor recommond to eat more fiber, but not to eat the fiber precentage high food.
