Verified step by step guidance

Understand the function of diuretics: Diuretics are substances that promote the production of urine, which helps the body eliminate excess water and salts.

Consider the options provided: The options include improving cardiovascular endurance, increasing urine production to reduce water weight, enhancing muscle growth, and boosting immune system function.

Analyze the relationship between diuretics and each option: Diuretics primarily affect the kidneys and urinary system, leading to increased urine production.

Identify the correct application of diuretics: Since diuretics increase urine production, they are often used to reduce water weight, which is the correct application in this context.

Conclude that the primary use of diuretics by athletes is to increase urine production to reduce water weight, rather than affecting cardiovascular endurance, muscle growth, or immune function.
