The correct answer is B, 'a recent government report comparing the results of alternative and contemporary medicine for a specified disease'. Answer choice A is incorrect because posts on social networking sites are not reliable. Answer choice C is incorrect because this is clearly an advertisement, and not an actual study. Answer choice D is incorrect because the study is outdated, and better medicines may have been created since it was posted.

Hope this helps!

Answer:

B. an online recent government report comparing the results of alternative and contemporary medicine
