Now Red Yeast Rice - 1200 mg 60 tabs

Now Red Yeast Rice 1200mg is a powerful dietary supplement based primarily on a red fermented rice from China. Red yeast rice is made from fermenting red yeast with white rice. This ingredient was traditionally used by Chinese people to color their food and wine. Japanese sake and Korean rice wine also uses red yeast rice to provide red color. They also used it for therapeutic purposes such as improved digestion and blood circulation. NOW Red Yeast Rice combines other key ingredients such as CoQ-10, oat bran fiber, calcium carbonate, together with other advanced methods, in order to produce a formula that better addresses cholesterol problems.
