The correct option is B relative
From the given options, we can use logic and vocabulary to eliminate the options that do not fit into the sentence correctly. From the sentence, it may be inferred that there is a comparison of caffeine in coffee with the harm it causes. Option A and Option C are wrong because they are given in the exact form and no modifications can be made.
