1. Red Yeast Rice- Cholesterol Reduction
Benefits

2. Introduction to Red Yeast Rice
• Red Yeast Rice is a staple food product consumed for hundreds of
years in China.
When fermented the resultant rice has a distinctive
Monacolin K
red colour and contains a material known as
“Monacolin K”
• The naturally occurring Monacolin K works in the body very much like
the pharmaceutical drugs known as “statins” which reduce the level of
LDL Cholesterol (bad cholesterol) circulating in the blood and so help
reduce cholesterol.
• Regular intake of quality Red Yeast Rice can help reduce bad
cholesterol and so improve health.

3. Benefits of Red Yeast Rice
•The European Food Safety Agency (EFSA) recently review the scientific
clinical data available for Red Yeast Rice and concluded:-
“Monacolin K from Red Yeast Rice preparations contributes to the
maintenance of normal blood cholesterol concentrations”
• Quality Red Yeast Rice can therefore be added to food
Supplements & food products to deliver 10mg of Monacolin K
allowing for health claims and so provide marketing
opportunities for foods and supplement products.
