This is hardly a representative cross-section of the population, i.e.:

"Most of the patients in the studies reviewed were either heart
patients or considered candidates for cardiovascular disease. As such,
some patients were taking drugs to treat abnormal lipids and high
blood pressure. "

This would suggest that most are near or past retirement, and the
drugs they are taking are probably overwhelming any supplements.

Please post topics that are meaningful.

A population taking statins. Likely most too ill advised
to make the most effective change in their diet needed
to modulate their blood lipids. Rather than soluble fiber
and pantetheine, the "professionals" give statins.
