- Combines red rice yeast (providing monacolin k), CoQ10 and Hawthorn leaf extract
- Guaranteed to be free from citrinin
- Small, easy-to-swallow capsules
- Suitable for vegetarians and vegans
Red Rice Yeast Plus contains an extract of red rice yeast providing monacolin K (the main active component of red rice yeast). Red rice yeast has been used for centuries in China.
- Red rice yeast is prepared by fermentation of the rice with the yeast Monascus purpureus
- Cytoplan Red Rice Yeast Plus also includes hawthorn leaf extract (Crataegus pinnatifida) and co-enzyme Q10
- Every batch of red rice yeast is checked to ensure that it is guaranteed free from citrinin, a mycotoxin which can be produced during the fermentation process
- In June 2022, the new Commission Regulation (EU) 2022/860 came into force, which specifies that red rice yeast food supplements must have less than 3mg of Monacolin K per daily dose. Hence you will notice that the recommended intake of our product has reduced from 3 to 2 capsules daily to comply with this legislation
