Red Rice Yeast Plus
Red Rice Yeast Plus has recently been improved; it is now in smaller capsules as it contains a stronger organic extract of red rice yeast providing the same level of monacolin K (the main active component of red rice yeast). Red rice yeast contains a number of beneficial constituents including monacolin K, flavonoids, unsaturated fatty acids and sterols. This product is now in a smaller capsule, however, it has the same active dose as the previous product.

- Red rice yeast is prepared by fermentation of the rice with the yeast Monascus purpureus
- The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) has authorised the following health claim for red rice yeast and monacolin K: Monacolin K from red rice yeast contributes to the maintenance of normal blood cholesterol levels (the beneficial effect is obtained with a daily intake of 10mg of monacolin K)

- Every batch of red rice yeast is checked to ensure there are no detectable levels of citrinin, a mycotoxin which can be produced during the fermentation process.
