The only good red yeast is from UCLA and its only in for clinical studies right now and its not for the public according to my AUNT who is a Medical Doctor. She said they are rapping up the studies with in 2 years. I would wait on that source to lower cholestrol for a few years and remember what UCLA has in there LABS is far more advanced compard to a supplment company so there machines will make the quality higher. Food for though. PM Me if you are really worried. I probably can get you stuff from the doctors office I work at. Let me know. I can't say any names on the board.

Do not falsely conclude that you can eat more than the RDA recommended 300mg without consequence. Especially since many foods high in cholesterol are also high in saturated fats. Read more at www.usda.gov. Here is an article from that site: http://www.aphis.usda.gov/mrpbs/safe...ol_ed_mnth.pdf

Red yeast rice has been used in China for centuries to make rice wine, to color and flavor foods such as Peking duck and as a health promoting food. It is prepared by fermenting a type of yeast (Monascus purpureus) over rice. Red yeast rice is a complex product that contains several active ingredients including monacolins. Monacolins act as HMG-CoA inhibitors. HMG-CoA reductase is an enzyme that helps make cholesterol. By blocking its cholesterol producing action, the natural compounds in red yeast rice can help you maintain cholesterol levels that are within the normal range. A double blind clinical trial using red yeast rice and placebo with 80 human subjects was conducted at UCLA. After eight weeks with no changes in diet composition the group taking red yeast rice maintained healthy cholesterol levels.
