Three complementary ingredients in one capsule to help maintain cholesterol levels already within a normal range and support cardiovascular health.

How the Three Ingredients Work Together

Each ingredient supports cholesterol metabolism through a distinct mechanism.

Red Yeast Rice (monacolin K) supports the reduction of cholesterol synthesis in the liver, where approximately 70โ€“80% of the body's cholesterol is produced.

Free Plant Sterols compete with cholesterol for absorption in the small intestine, helping reduce the amount of cholesterol absorbed from food and bile.

Policosanol from sugarcane wax provides complementary support alongside the other two ingredients.

Together, these three ingredients address both hepatic cholesterol synthesis and intestinal cholesterol absorption.

What Is Red Yeast Rice?

Red Yeast Rice is produced by fermenting white rice with the mold Monascus purpurea. This process produces monacolin K, which inhibits HMG-CoA reductase the enzyme the liver uses to synthesize cholesterol. This formula is standardized to 0.2% monacolin K, providing 0.5 mg per capsule.

Long term use may reduce coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) levels. Discuss CoQ10 supplementation with your healthcare practitioner if using this product long term.

What Are Plant Sterols?

Plant sterols are naturally occurring compounds in plant cell membranes that are structurally similar to cholesterol. In the small intestine, they compete with cholesterol for absorption, helping reduce the amount of cholesterol that enters the bloodstream. This formula provides 375 mg of free plant sterols per capsule from soybean, including beta sitosterol, campesterol, and stigmasterol.

Clinical Research

Red yeast rice and LDL cholesterol reduction: a meta analysis of randomized controlled trials

American Journal of Cardiology, 2012

This meta analysis of randomized controlled trials evaluated the effects of red yeast rice supplementation on lipid profiles. The analysis found that red yeast rice significantly reduced LDL cholesterol, total cholesterol, and triglycerides compared to placebo. The mechanism is attributed to monacolin K, which inhibits HMG-CoA reductase โ€” the same enzyme targeted by statin medications โ€” thereby reducing hepatic cholesterol synthesis. The safety profile was comparable to low-dose statins, and the authors concluded that red yeast rice is an effective natural option for supporting cholesterol levels already within a normal range.

Plant sterols and intestinal cholesterol absorption

Annual Review of Nutrition, 2004

This review examined the clinical evidence for plant sterol supplementation and its effects on cholesterol absorption. Plant sterols are structurally similar to cholesterol and compete with it for absorption in the small intestine, reducing the amount of cholesterol that enters the bloodstream. Clinical trials consistently demonstrate that plant sterol consumption reduces LDL cholesterol by 7โ€“12% through this competitive inhibition mechanism. The authors noted that even doses lower than the commonly cited 1.5โ€“3g/day threshold provide measurable benefit, and that plant sterols from soybean sources โ€” including beta-sitosterol, campesterol, and stigmasterol โ€” are among the most well-studied and effective forms.

Policosanol and lipid lowering effects: a systematic review

American Heart Journal, 2002

This systematic review evaluated the clinical evidence for policosanol derived from sugarcane wax and its effects on lipid metabolism. Multiple randomized controlled trials reported improvements in LDL and HDL cholesterol ratios at doses of 10โ€“20 mg per day, with a favorable tolerability and safety profile. The proposed mechanism involves modulation of cholesterol synthesis and enhanced LDL receptor activity. The authors concluded that policosanol represents a well-tolerated complementary option for supporting healthy lipid profiles, particularly when used alongside other cholesterol-modulating agents such as plant sterols and red yeast rice.
