This product has worked exceptionally well for us in controlling our cholesterol. Diet is important but this eliminated the horrible side effects from prescription cholesterol drugs.

My doctor has been pressuring me to take statins for high cholesterol. He was happy to accept this as a substitute and I am happy to avoid statins.
Alisa Schindler –
Really good product. Had very high ldl and spokecto my dr about trying red yeast rice instead of pharmaceuticals. I did a blood check before where my ldls were 160. 3 months later, they were literally half!! I could not believe it, but it’s true. I’ve been on them for years now with no side effects, except lower cholesterol. My mom is taking now too!

For my husband I, two tablets a day helps with cholesterol numbers. We’ve gone off it for some period several times just to see its effectiveness and cholesterol has risen. Unlike statins, we haven’t had any side effects like sore muscles. Tried one other brand which didn’t work. Been using Natures Plus for years now.

Used to help lower cholesterol as statins caused me a great deal of pain. This product helped lower my LDL. I did try a NON-EXTENDED RELEASE red yeast rice product and it did NOT help cholesterol. I was told that only the extended release would help but I HAD to try the non-extended for myself and there was a huge difference. I have complemented this extended release RYR with bee pollen granules and am happy with results.

This product did lower my cholesterol level but after a couple of months it messed with my memory so I stopped taking them. The good news is my memory is normal again.
Alice Amanda Hen –
My doctor recommended these by name. I took them consistently for 3 months, and halfheartedly for 3 months. My LDL dropped 30 points without any substantive dietary changes.

I have been taking Red Yeast Rice for 8 months now and my cholesterol readings dropped from 218 to 170
I am allergic to Prescription Statens but even thought Red Yeast Rice is a natural staten it does not cause the leg cramps and pain that prescription statens do. It works for me but talk to your doctor for their advice

My doctor recommended red yeast rice to lower my cholesterol before putting me on a statin. Of course you have to combine these supplements with proper diet and exercise but results were remarkable. I understand that everyone is different but I have been on this supplement for a few years now and it works for me.

Have used this product for years to keep cholesterol in check. It really works well when used in conjunction with CoQ10.
Lucia C –
Easy to swallow and just 1 a day pill. Used to lower cholesterol as chemical statins have lots of side affects.
Reynoso –
easier than purchasing locally limited distribution on a great product that helped to reduce my cholestrol from >250 to 154 . Take before bed every night.
Pinthy –
Started taking this to help with cholesterol and avoid prescription statins. My doctor has been amazed at how well it is controlling my numbers. Completely recommend this. Lots of my friends have started it and are getting great results as well.
Mary P –
We have been taking this red yeast rice for years and it has kept our cholesterol in check. My doctor was impressed with the results when we started taking this.
Gina Doolittle –
I love these tablets, which are smaller than the capsules I previously used. Fit in my pill box easily. I like the extend release feature. When taken orally, these tablets don’t produce gastric reactions or reflux like some other capsules of this type.

I have been using the NaturesPlus Herbal Actives Red Yeast Rice for about three years. It has successfully helped me to lower my cholesterol to acceptable levels. It’s something you just have to try and may not work for everyone. I have a friend who tried this product and it did not work for him but you won’t know until you try. My doctor is okay with me using this product instead of a pharmaceutical statin.
B Maderos Sterling –
My cholesterol was so high that my doctor told me he couldn’t do anything more for me and would be a target for a heart attack. I did some research and started taking this. My next visit to the doctor left him wondering what I had done because it came way down from 248 to 177. I am so relieved and will continue using this product.
Ray C. –
My wife and I have been taking these for years to control our cholesterol and are pleased with the results.
Lyn –
This is the only Red Yeast Rice I use. I’ve tried a couple of other brands but this is the only one I’ve found that really does lower my cholesterol. Since this does act as a statin (though a natural one), it’s important to also take Co-Q-10 to increase the absorption. I use Qunol (Ubiquinol) from Costco.
va. reader –
I had such adverse reactions to statin drugs that this was recommended by my doctor as an alternative. My cholesterol levels have been good and I have no side effects
calliope –
I use red yeast rice instead of drugs to keep cholesterol under control. No ill effects that I’m aware of.
Mark Kastilahn –
My labs showed cholesterol was peeping over the max….Doctor suggested this might work. Took half his recommendation. When I was tested again about 6 months later doctor’s response was what did you do? My labs had dropped 20 points. Works for me.
Suzy –
This supplement really reduced my cholesterol levels
joanna –
The red yeast rice reduces cholesterol. I recommended this to my friends. It works for all of us. I refused to take statins prescribed by doctors. Read yeast rice was recommended to me by one cardiologist. I am surprised that doctors do not know this remedy. There are other brands. I like Natures Plus. This one works for me and my friends.
