Red Yeast Rice Plus

Many individuals with elevated cholesterol have been able to improve their cardiovascular health with the aid of nutritional supplements. One of the nutraceuticals that has been shown in research studies to support normal LDL and total cholesterol levels is red yeast rice. Red yeast rice is the product of yeast (Monascus purpureus) grown on rice and contains several compounds that are collectively known as monacolins which support the mechanisms that can lead to improved cardiovascular health. Each capsule contains 600 mg of organic red yeast rice grown in the U.S. and manufactured to avoid the presence of citrinin; a toxin that can be produced during the fermentation process.
