Red Yeast Rice
« on: April 25, 2006, 01:55:08 PM »
Has anyone tried this for lowering cholesterol?  Curious as i was thinking about picking some up.  The things I have heard were promising, but wanted to know if any of u have actually used it.

Thanks Flower. I just picked up some fish oil.  I don't have high BP.  The highest it's been was 120/79 and normally it's lower when i go take it at the dr's office.  I heard that red yeast is supposed to be very good for lowering LDL cholesterol.

Go with 3-6 grams fish oil / day for 30 days and report back on your numbers.
