Red yeast rice has been used in food and traditional medicine for thousands of years in China for cardiovascular support. An extract of red yeast rice has been fermented with the yeast Monascus purpureus, which generates compounds clinically proven to inhibit cholesterol production in the liver.

Unlike many other red yeast rice supplements on the market, AOR's red yeast rice with ankascine 568-R undergoes a patented extraction process that removes citrinin, a toxic byproduct of fermentation. Most red yeast rice products on the market also contain monacolin K, a compound associated with side effects similar to statins. These side effects can include myopathy, muscle pain and weakness, and rhabdomyolysis, a condition in which muscle fibers break down, releasing harmful substances that can affect the liver and kidneys in the blood. Improve your heart health with AOR's red yeast rice.

AOR's Red Yeast Rice is the world's first red yeast rice supplement free of both monacolin K and citrinin. Furthermore, AOR has standardized the content of monascins and ankaflavins, biologically active pigments studied for their cholesterol-lowering activity.
