Red Yeast Rice: Natural Support for Healthy Lipid Metabolism and Cardiovascular Health
Heart health depends on balanced cholesterol, proper metabolic function, and protection against oxidative stress. For centuries, red yeast rice (RYR) has been used in traditional Chinese medicine to promote cardiovascular wellness. Today, research shows that its naturally occurring compounds, monacolins, may help support healthy lipid metabolism and overall cardiovascular function.
Why Choose Red Yeast Rice?
Certified quality – The red yeast rice in this product is USDA certified organic, non-GMO, and U.S.-grown.
Purity assurance – Carefully assayed to ensure undetectable levels of citrinin, a common fungal contaminant, while maintaining naturally occurring monacolin compounds.
Synergistic benefits – Works best when paired with coenzyme Q10 (such as CoQnol™ or Q-Evail®) to help replenish CoQ10 levels, which may be reduced by RYR supplementation.
