Review of RYR
by RYR -
Taking at night is the most effective. I have tried other brands with no good results.
Lowered my total cholesterol AND my LDL cholesterol
by Healthy in Austin -
NuMedica's Red Yeast Rice Extra Strength is the first red yeast rice supplement that I've tried that actually works. My total cholesterol went from 196 to 122, and my LDL decreased from 71 to 45. In combination with exercise (5x a week) and a more or less healthy diet (I eat vegan or vegetarian 3x a week) this stuff really works to lower your cholesterol. Be sure to take it with Co-Q10, as it will strip your body of Co-Q10 just like any other statin.
