Red yeast rice is an excellent source of naturally-occurring statin compounds. The fact that there is a combination of these compounds rather than just high levels of one compound it is less likely to cause the side effects sometimes seen in pharmaceutical preparations. The active ingredients in red yeast rice may reduce the body’s production of CoQ10, therefore we advise supplementing with at least 100mg of this important nutraceutical.*
Plant sterols, also known as phytosterols, are found in all plants. The best dietary sources of plant sterols are vegetables, seeds, and nuts. Plant sterols are a class of fat-soluble plant compounds which share a similar chemical structure to cholesterol (found only in animal foods). The similarities in chemical structure allow the plant sterols to compete with cholesterol for incorporation into mixed micelles, thereby reducing the absorption of cholesterol and increasing its excretion via the bile (feces). Studies demonstrate that consumption of plant sterols, by inhibiting the intestinal absorption of cholesterol, have a favorable affect on cholesterol levels.*
CoQ10 is an essential component of the electron transport chain within the cell. This part of the cell is responsible for creating the energy (ATP) that is used to support normal, healthy cell function. Given the fact that red yeast rice does contain small amounts of statin-like compounds which inhibit the enzyme HMG-CoA Reductase (a key enzyme in cholesterol and CoQ10 synthesis), providing CoQ10 will help prevent the reduction of CoQ10 levels and any effects associated with this reduction.*
