Red Rice Yeast Extract for Cholesterol

[jmjm530]

Anyone taking it? If so, what did your doctor say? What dose? What results, before and after? For those interested, red rice yeast extract (Monascus  purpureus )is a kind of natural statin sometimes taken for those who want to reduce their cholesterol.

hi, I don't really have a lot of experience with this, my cholesterol has always been good (ironically enough, I wonder if there has been more studies indicating high cholesterol being a predictor for ultimate SVR, I seem to remember a study?) but a small amount of it was in a energy/health powder I took, you prob know more about it then I do at this point...best of luck with this...
