Maintaining healthy LDL cholesterol is crucial for heart health. While effective cholesterol management should include diet and lifestyle changes, such as a whole-foods diet tailored to individual needs and regular aerobic exercise, a high-quality dietary supplement like Thorne’s Red Yeast Rice + CoQ10 provides extra support.* Thorne’s Red Yeast Rice + CoQ10 is formulated with Monascus purpureus, a red-pigmented yeast naturally produced on fermented rice. Numerous studies in both China and the U.S. show that red yeast rice supports cholesterol levels already within the normal range.* Because cholesterol and CoQ10 share similar synthesis pathways, our formula contains an optimized amount of CoQ10 in each capsule to maintain normal levels in the body.

Benefits of Thorne’s Red Yeast Rice + CoQ10

• Delivers naturally occurring compounds found in red yeast rice to maintain cholesterol levels in the normal range*
• Contains beneficial compounds such as phytosterols (beta-sitosterol, campesterol, stigmasterol), isoflavones, and trace minerals, which all contribute to cardiovascular health*
• Provides antioxidant support*

Features of Thorne’s Red Yeast Rice + CoQ10

• Provides additional health benefits with 15 mg of CoQ10 per capsule
• Third-party tested to ensure safety, purity, and compliance with strict GMP standards
• Formulated with red yeast rice that is produced by a carefully controlled fermentation method that results in less than 0.05 parts per million of citrinin, a mycotoxin that can form during rice fermentation – far below the industry standard of 1 part per million
