NOW Foods Red Yeast Rice with CoQ10, 600mg, 60caps

NOW Foods Red Yeast Rice with CoQ10 combines traditional red yeast rice with four supportive ingredients. Red yeast rice (Monascus purpureus) is a natural product used in traditional Asian herbalism for centuries, produced by fermenting red yeast with rice. Each two-capsule serving contains 1200 mg of organic red yeast rice.

Alongside red yeast rice, the formula provides 60 mg of coenzyme Q10, 100 mg of alpha-lipoic acid and 210 mg of milk thistle extract standardised for silymarin (168 mg of flavonoids). The manufacturer includes silymarin to support healthy liver function, and CoQ10 with alpha-lipoic acid for free-radical protection. An important quality detail: the product is carefully manufactured to avoid the presence of citrinin, an unwanted by-product of the red yeast rice fermentation process.

NOW Foods is an American family-owned company operating since 1968, with products made in a GMP-certified facility. This product is kosher, suitable for vegetarians and vegans, and non-GMO. The bottle contains 60 veg capsules, i.e. 30 two-capsule servings.

Note: red yeast rice supplements are strictly regulated in the European Union and carry usage restrictions — please read the warnings carefully. The product must not be used together with cholesterol-lowering medication or other products containing red yeast rice.
