The author tells us that stress causes two bad things: bad emotions and bad health. They then tell us that to overcome bad emotions, we should improve health.
This makes little sense. We know that stress causes bad emotions, but we have no idea that bad health causes bad emotions. The only connection we have between health and emotions is they are both caused by stress. We have no idea if one causes the other as well.

The correct answer here (B) explains that " 2 conditions have a common cause," which in this case would be psychological stress. However, isn't psychological stress the cause and the negative emotions and poor health are the effects? I understand that these 2 conditions have no causal relationship, but my issue was between the cause/ effect matter when answering this question.

Stress is indeed the cause and emotions and health are the effects. The two effects may have no relationship with each other, but the author wrongly assumes they do.
