Lol, you guys are too much. On the one hand, you acknowledge they are nearly always taken together and so why not a combo pill? On the other you don’t like the idea that MO can block statins so now you want it to be true that they are taken at vastly diff times.

No they’re taken together. Almost always. Read the labels, some even require you to take at night with food (lovastatin). And even if some were taking their V or placebo with dinner and then taking a statin and going to sleep 2-3 hours later (unlikely they would separate them when the label says you can take the statin with food), it would still interfere with absorption, having coated the GI track.

It’s actually most probable that subjects just took all 4 pills at dinner with a statin. And you really shouldn’t do that with MO, even despite the statin. I’ll bet their serum vit E, D and K levels were significantly lower than V group as well.
