Red Yeast Rice (Formerly Choleast 900)

This product contains Monascus purpureus, a red-pigmented yeast grown on rice. Studies have demonstrated that red yeast rice preparations are helpful in maintaining healthy blood cholesterol levels, which is important for maintaining good cardiovascular health. Red Yeast Rice contains consistent amounts of the naturally occurring monacolins, without standardization or fortification. In addition to natural monacolins, red yeast rice contains the phytosterols beta-sitosterol, campesterol, and stigmasterol, as well as isoflavones and trace minerals, all of which can contribute to cardiovascular health.
