LDL reduction
Most Useful Review
I've been taking Now Foods Red Yeast Rice on and off for a few years. I've documented, through blood tests, how effectively it lowers bad cholesterol (LDL) and raises good cholesterol (HDL), also helping to decrease triglycerides if they are elevated. It's important not to mix it with other cholesterol medications, and regular blood work is advised to monitor cholesterol and kidney function if using this.

I was diagnosed with high cholesterol and tried pharmaceutical medication, which caused severe leg pain. I learned about red yeast rice and decided to give it a go. Although I haven't had my cholesterol checked again, I feel significantly better since starting these supplements. My chest pain and other high cholesterol symptoms have disappeared. However, my holistic practitioner advised against long-term use due to potential liver effects, suggesting milk thistle and Coenzyme Q10 in conjunction.

Inhibits cancer growth
Most Useful Review
The primary active ingredient in red yeast rice, Monacolin K, inhibits cholesterol synthesis. Its structure is akin to the statin-type cholesterol-lowering medication Lovastatin. It aids in lowering blood pressure, overall cholesterol, and low-density cholesterol while providing cardiovascular benefits and protecting blood vessels. Moreover, certain studies indicate that rhodocin may possess anti-cancer properties by curtailing the growth of cancer cells and may indirectly reduce the risk of Alzheimer's disease by lowering blood cholesterol.

Most Useful Review
A cardiologist advised me to take this drug for my vascular atherosclerosis and carotid artery plaques since my cholesterol isn’t critical. To avoid statins, the doctor recommended this medication. After ordering it from a friend, I took it for two months, resulting in a drop in cholesterol! The most notable improvement was my well-being; my headaches, which used to occur daily due to migraines, significantly decreased, and there was much less dizziness. I’ve already ordered it from the website and will continue taking it.
