Organic red yeast rice to support healthy blood lipid levels*

This product contains 1.2 grams of organic red yeast rice per serving derived from U.S. grown Monascus purpureus, a yeast that contains several compounds collectively known as monacolins. Research shows that monacolin may support overall cardiovascular health.* Monacolin K, in particular, has been shown to help maintain healthy blood lipid levels through its interaction with the production of HMG-CoA reductase, the enzyme directly involved in determining how much cholesterol the body produces.

Outstanding Quality
