Red Yeast Rice
Red rice (yeast) + coenzyme Q10 and vitamin B1
Dietary supplement, 180 capsules
Red rice (yeast) + coenzyme Q10 and vitamin B1 from the British company WeightWorld is a natural dietary supplement to support normal cholesterol balance, cardiovascular health, and energy metabolism.
Main benefits:
- Contributes to maintaining normal blood cholesterol levels
- Supports normal heart function
- Promotes energy metabolism and reduces fatigue
- Supports a healthy lipid profile (LDL/HDL cholesterol)
- Helps maintain normal blood pressure
- Improves cellular respiration and the energy capacity of the heart muscle
The action of red fermented rice is based on the monacolin K contained in it. A bioactive compound that is formed during the fermentation process by the specific strain of yeast Monascus purpureus . This red rice should not be confused with ordinary red rice as a cereal crop. It is white rice that undergoes controlled fermentation with the help of red yeast. As a result of this process, the rice grains acquire a characteristic red color and contain a number of secondary metabolites, including monacolins - of which monacolin K is the most studied and effective.
Monacolin K is an inhibitor of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A reductase (HMG-CoA), a key enzyme in the endogenous synthesis of cholesterol in the liver. Inhibition of this enzyme leads to a reduced synthesis of mevalonic acid - a precursor of cholesterol. Thus, the body is forced to compensate by increased absorption of cholesterol from the peripheral blood, which leads to a significant decrease in LDL-cholesterol levels (the "bad" cholesterol) and in some cases - to a moderate decrease in triglycerides, while maintaining or slightly increasing HDL-cholesterol (the "good" cholesterol).
Clinical studies have shown that regular intake of red yeast rice with approximately 10 mg of monacolin K per day can lower LDL cholesterol by up to 15–25% within 8–12 weeks. Although the dosage in the supplement is moderate (2.9 mg per day), it is sufficient to maintain lipid profiles within limits, especially when used prophylactically or in people with mild to moderate cholesterol profile abnormalities. At the same time, lower doses reduce the risk of side effects typical of synthetic statins.
Another advantage of red fermented rice is the presence of natural isoflavones, phytosterols and unsaturated fatty acids, which act in synergy with monacolin K and contribute to the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity of the product.
The content of coenzyme Q10 in the product is not accidental, since inhibition of HMG-CoA reductase blocks not only the synthesis of cholesterol, but also Q10 (ubiquinone), which is important for mitochondrial function. Its deficiency can lead to muscle weakness, fatigue and impaired heart function, especially with long-term use of statins.
Coenzyme Q10 plays a central role in the process of oxidative phosphorylation – the main mechanism for the production of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) in mitochondria. The highest concentration of Q10 is found in organs that require energy, such as the heart, liver and skeletal muscles. Taking coenzyme Q10 supports the contractile function of the myocardium, regulates blood pressure, improves microcirculation and reduces oxidative stress by neutralizing free radicals. In a number of randomized studies, the addition of Q10 to red rice therapy improves tolerance to treatment, reduces the incidence of myopathies and contributes to better physical endurance.
The third major component in the formula – vitamin B1 (thiamine) – complements the action of monacolin K and coenzyme Q10 by its participation in the oxidative decarboxylation of pyruvate and alpha-ketoglutarate, key reactions in cellular energy production. Thiamine is an essential cofactor in multiple enzyme complexes, including pyruvate dehydrogenase and transketolase, which play a role in both the Krebs cycle and the pentose phosphate pathway, as well as in glucose metabolism.
At a functional level, vitamin B1 deficiency can lead to cardiomyopathy, arrhythmias, fatigue, and cognitive decline due to impaired neuromuscular conduction and energy supply. Supplementation with thiamine provides metabolic stability, support for the nervous and cardiovascular systems, and additional protection against oxidative and metabolic stress.
The combination of red fermented rice, CoQ10, and vitamin B1 represents an integrated approach to lipid and energy metabolism, which simultaneously aims to maintain cardiovascular health, reduce risk factors for atherosclerosis, and ensure cellular resilience and energy efficiency - without the side effects associated with taking synthetic medications.
The package contains 180 capsules (6 months), with a recommended daily intake of 1 capsule before dinner.
