Improve the bracketed part of the sentence.

But understanding what constitutes such (a miracle diet), and making sure that patients get it, isn’t as straightforward as it seems.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1, i.e. a miraculous diet.

  • The noun 'diet' requires an adjective to add more towards it's meaning. Whereas the word used here is 'miracle', which denotes itself as a noun. So, the correct word should be 'miraculous' as it is an adjective that means being of the nature of a miracle or having the power to work miracles.
