Red yeast rice has a unique composition of natural statins that improve cardiovascular health.

• Has proven benefits for improving circulation and digestion, with a positive effect on the lipid profile.
• Reduces “bad” cholesterol (LDL) levels and increases “good” cholesterol (HDL) levels.
• Helps regulate the production of cholesterol in the liver.

Red Yeast Rice – Improves Circulation and Heart Health

With its unique composition of natural statins, our nutritional supplement of Red Rice Yeast represents an effective purchase option to fight against “bad” cholesterol and hypercholesterolemia. The effect of its natural statins helps prevent the development of, among other things, cardiovascular diseases.

How is red yeast rice obtained?

Our red yeast rice dietary supplement is obtained by drying and grinding a microscopic red yeast called Monascus purpureus, grown on fermented rice. Very popular in China, this product is now marketed throughout the world in the form of a food supplement, offering the possibility of benefiting from the many attributes of this species of yeast. It has been cultivated in China for many years and is widely used in Asia as a natural food coloring for certain dishes or to add flavor. It is also listed in the Chinese Pharmacopoeia for its health benefits.

What are the health benefits associated with red yeast rice?

The therapeutic potential of red yeast rice has a long history, with records documenting its medical use as early as the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644).

• In traditional Chinese medicine, red yeast rice is recommended to promote good circulation and to relieve gastrointestinal problems such as indigestion and diarrhea. As a result, red yeast rice has been the subject of numerous scientific studies in recent years. Scientists have shown that it has a very specific composition, giving it several health benefits, especially for the cardiovascular system.
• The health benefits of red yeast rice are thus due to its composition, which is characterized in particular by its monacolin content. These substances act as inhibitors of HMG-CoA reductase, an enzyme that regulates the production of cholesterol in the liver.
• They are thus considered natural statins, molecules used to treat hypercholesterolemia – high levels of cholesterol in the blood. To avoid the accumulation of cholesterol in the body, several laboratories have developed synthetic statins such as lovastatin. As a natural source of statins, red yeast rice would therefore appear to be a desirable alternative.
• One of its constituents, monacolin K, is actually chemically identical to lovastatin. Red yeast rice also contains other compounds beneficial to cardiovascular health such as sterols (beta-sitosterol, campesterol, stigmasterol and sapogenin), isoflavones and monounsaturated fatty acids.
• In addition to its traditionally recognized benefits for improving circulation and digestion, red yeast rice has a positive effect on the lipid profile. Due to its monacolin content, yeast has been used for over a decade to control high cholesterol and dyslipidemia.
• A number of scientific studies have shown that it restricts cholesterol biosynthesis. Yeast supplementation lowers triglyceride and “bad” LDL cholesterol levels and increases “good” HDL cholesterol levels.
• These positive effects on the lipid profile also prevent certain cardiovascular problems. As a result, red yeast rice is sometimes recommended for patients at risk of stroke. This product from the Chinese pharmacopoeia is also suggested as a natural alternative for patients suffering from muscle pain as a side effect of synthetic statins.

The guggul
Not only is guggul famous in history for strengthening digestion and supporting the liver and immune system, but this dried resin extract of the mukul myrrh tree with its famous guggulsterones also supports your cholesterol levels, with attention particular to HDL and LDL – Cholesterol is placed, which is already in the normal range.
Guggulu Purifying and detoxifying. Guggul has a cleansing and detoxifying effect on the body, promoting the elimination of toxins and contributing to the burning of fat, making it the perfect supplement for periods of weight loss. It also helps maintain the correct HDL/LDL ratio, thereby improving blood cholesterol and triglyceride levels. In addition, it is prepared according to the Hindu health system, since Ayurveda recognizes the balance between the energies (Doshas) of the human body: Vata (Air), Pitta (Fire) and Kapha (Water). Ayurveda uses ecological and traditional cultivation techniques that respect the environment, helping to take care of our planet. For this reason, its goal is to have a greater variety of organic food every day, as well as food for people with food allergies or intolerances.

Garlic

Garlic cloves contain phenolic acids (responsible for their antiseptic properties) and flavonoids. But their most important compound is alliin which, once the garlic is crushed, is transformed into allicin under the action of an enzyme present in the cloves. In the presence of oxygen, allicin then transforms into sulfur compounds (allyl di- and trisulfide, methyl trisulfide, ajoenes, etc.) which appear to be the active ingredients responsible for the therapeutic effects of garlic. The mechanism of action of these sulfur compounds remains poorly understood.

Policosanol with anti-cholesterol effects.

• Inhibits the production of cholesterol in the liver.
• May increase the breakdown of bad cholesterol.
• New and natural option to lower cholesterol.

Policosanol is produced from a collection of fatty alcohols. Made up of several long carbon chain alcohols, policosanol is found naturally in beeswax and various vegetable waxes. It was discovered by Cuban scientists who were the first to extract policosanol from sugar cane. Since their work in the 1990s, policosanol has been the subject of numerous scientific studies because of its effect on the synthesis of cholesterol, an effect which led to its development as a dietary supplement for therapeutic purposes.
