WHAT IS
CHOLESTEROL?
A lipid naturally produced by the body, cholesterol is a necessary component
of most body tissues including the blood, liver, nervous system and
brain. Cholesterol is vital for the production of sex and adrenal hormones,
vitamin D and bile, necessary for the digestion of fats
While there is little
chance of a cholesterol deficiency in the body, there is a growing concern
for high levels of cholesterol in the body, specifically the levels
of LDL (low density lipoprotein) cholesterol.
WHAT ARE SOME
OF THE HEALTH RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH HIGH CHOLESTEROL?
Of primary concern is the risk of a buildup in the arteries of fatty
deposits composed of cholesterol and calcium. Left untreated, this condition
may lead to arteriosclerosis and its more advanced form, atherosclerosis,
causing the walls of arteries to thicken and harden. Most affected are
the aorta and other arteries of the heart and brain. This may greatly
increase the risk of stroke, coronary heart disease and heart attacks.
WHAT ARE THE
POSSIBLE BENEFITS FROM TAKING “Red Yeast Rice Complex ”?
“Red Yeast Rice Complex” is the most effective formula available
for a safe and natural means to help lower cholesterol in the body.

Summary of the UCLA Study:
In 1999, the UCLA School of Medicine conducted a double-blind, placebo-controlled
study at the university’s research center. Eight-three healthy
subjects (46 men and 37 Women, 34-78 years of age) participated in the
12 week study with the treatment group (42 subjects) receiving 2.4 grams
of red yeast rice per day while a placebo was given to the control group
(41 subjects). Both groups were instructed to follow the same diet throughout
the 12 week period.

was later proven to be unrelated to the study. Three adverse reactions
were reported from the control group. Liver function was unchanged in
either group.
Study Results:
Total cholesterol, LDL and triacylglycerols decreased significantly
in those taking red yeast rice compared to those of the placebo-treated
group.
Study Conclusions:
Red yeast rice significantly reduces total cholesterol, LDL and triacylglycerol
levels and provides an effective food based approach to lowering cholesterol
in the general population.
