I have been taking Red Yeast MK-10 for many years after having an adverse reaction to Statins. At my annual reviews with the Practice Nurse at our surgery said cholesterol readings were good after first taking the product. My husband is Statin intolerant and to protect him I suggested he also take them which he has been doing for a good few years now. He also has had good results when he has his annual reviews.
Excellent for helping with high cholesterol, took these years ago and back on then again now. Highly recommend them.
I have taken Red Yeast for a number of years after having an adverse reaction to statin. At my first annual review after first taking Red Yeast practice nurse said ‘whatever you are doing keep doing it’ as my cholesterol readings were bood. My husband is also statin intolerant and is now taking Red Yeast and is having same improvement in cholesterol levels.
I was told I had high cholesterol and would be referred to a lipid clinic. I wanted to avoid a statin and feared that the lipid clinic would want me to take one. Thankfully because of lockdown it took six months for my referral to become an appointment. For those six months I took red yeast. The lipid clinic tested my blood and were amazed to find the score had plummeted! I I have promised to keep taking red yeast and there has been no talk of statins. If you are in a similar position I can't recommend it highly enough and having it on subscription means I don't have to think about ordering it.
I had a bad reaction to medication prescribed by the doctor. On stopping that medication I consulted Jan de Vries and Red Yeast extract was recommended. On my first yearly diabetic check up with the practice nurse after first taking Red Yeast my cholesterol levels were better. Her comment was whatever you are doing keep doing it. I put the improvement down to taking Red Yeast and have been taking it for many years. In fact my husband is now taking it as he is statin intolerant.
One of the most important cholesterol lowering ingredients in red yeast rice is compound known as monacolin K which has been shown to contribute to the maintenance of normal blood cholesterol levels. This beneficial effect has been shown to be obtained with a daily intake of 10 mg of Monacolin K from fermented Red Yeast Rice preparations (Commission Regulation EU 432/2012). Hadley Wood's Red Yeast MK-10 delivers monacolin K at the recommended 10mg per serving of 2 capsules.
