How are we different?

The basis of our high-quality fermented red yeast rice is a particularly pure 5:1 extract, obtained via food-grade alcohol extraction. As part of the carefully controlled fermentation process, a standardised content of completely natural monacolin K of 1.5% is produced, which ensures the complete absence of synthetic active ingredients such as lovastatin and citrinin. Our fermented red yeast rice with monacolin K boasts exceptional bioavailability.

The only other ingredient is premium gum arabic (lat. Gummi arabicum) as a natural filler. In contrast to microcrystalline cellulose, a widely used synthetic filler often mixed with nanoparticles, gum arabic is a natural food.

For the capsule shells we use custom-made HPMC capsules that, unlike most other HPMC and pullulan capsules on the market, are 100% free from controversial additives such as carrageenans and PEG. We package this product in amber glass jars instead of plastic to protect the ingredients from light.

Red Yeast Rice with Monacolin K

Red yeast rice is a fermentation product of ordinary rice, which is produced by the addition of a fungus from the Monascus purpureus genus and gives it a wonderful red-violet colour. In addition to the appealing colour, the content of completely natural monacolin K is particularly noteworthy: monacolins ensure that HMG-CoA reductase, a key enzyme in cholesterol biosynthesis, is inhibited.
