Red Yeast Rice has been used for centuries in Chinese medicine for all types of ailments such as soothing an upset stomach, promoting blood circulation, helping stop diarrhea and helping colic in infants. However, it wasn't until later that it was realized that red yeast rice actually aids in lowering cholesterol. Today, some people still choose to take red yeast rice instead of taking cholesterol lowering drugs.
More and more people are looking at alternative remedies to lower their cholesterol because there are now more and more studies that have been done that tell you about the dangerous side effects of taking cholesterol lowering drugs (I just read an article that since cholesterol lowering drugs first came out, there are MORE people who die of heart attacks than before the cholesterol lowering drugs. Now I bet that makes you feel all warm and fuzzy inside, doesn't it?) like lipitor ... and people are getting scared and want to know more about Red Yeast Rice... and more importantly, they want to know if it works.
I can only tell you from my experience that it has worked. My husband has dropped his cholesterol dramatically (by almost 30%) and his triglycerides have gone down 100 points (almost 60%).
Now the one thing you need to be aware of when taking Red Yeast Rice is that just like when statin drugs are taken, the Co Q 10 gets depleted from your body in time. So if you are over 45 years old, it is recommended that you take Co Q 10 while taking Red Yeast Rice.
My husband takes red yeast rice and Co Q 10 as well as a few more supplements.
