About

Maintaining healthy LDL cholesterol is crucial for heart health. While effective cholesterol management should include diet and lifestyle changes, such as a whole-foods diet tailored to individual needs and regular aerobic exercise, a high-quality dietary supplement like Thorne’s Red Yeast Rice provides extra support.* Thorne’s Red Yeast Rice is formulated with Monascus purpureus, a red-pigmented yeast naturally produced on fermented rice. Numerous studies in both China and the U.S. show that red yeast rice supports cholesterol levels already within the normal range.* The same enzymes involved in the synthesis of cholesterol are also involved in the synthesis of coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10). Thus, to help maintain normal levels of CoQ10, we recommend also supplementing daily with Thorne's CoQ10. Benefits of Thorne’s Red Yeast Rice • Delivers naturally occurring compounds found in red yeast rice to maintain cholesterol levels in the normal range* • Contains beneficial compounds such as phytosterols (beta-sitosterol, campesterol, stigmasterol), isoflavones, and trace minerals, which all contribute to good cardiovascular health* Features of Thorne’s Red Yeast Rice • More red yeast rice per capsule compared to Red Yeast Rice + CoQ10, for increased benefits • Third-party tested to ensure safety, purity, and compliance with strict GMP standards • Formulated with red yeast rice that is produced by a carefully controlled fermentation method that results in less than 0.05 parts per million of citrinin, a mycotoxin that can form during rice fermentation – far below the industry standard of 1 part per million
