KAL1200 Mg Red Yeast Rice, 60 Count

I rarely write reviews but felt this product deserved a mention. My Dr. recommended I take Red Yeast Rice for two months as my cholesterol values were high enough to be out of the reference range. Wow, what a difference this product has made! I'm a 63 year old female in good health but have a family history of high cholesterol. These are the results of taking KAL Red Yeast Rice (once daily, 1200 mg) for 60 days:Cholesterol on 5/23/16 236, on 7/25/16 170 (down 66 points)Triglycerides on 5/23/16 159, on 7/25/16 65 (down 94 points)HDL on 5/23/16 74, on 7/25/16 74 (the so called "good cholesterol") no changeLDL on 5/23/16 130, on 7/25/16 83 (optimal is less than 100 mg/dl) (down 47 points) Needless to say, I'm sold on this product. I've had absolutely no side effects or issues with these tablets. It's all good! Price on Amazon is good, too, and it beats paying Big Pharma for their products!

Great Supplement for what it states.

I was told by my doctor that this is the best option for statins. I like that it has no after taste.

I'm not unhappy with the product itself, but the Amazon delivery driver seemed to think that throwing this over the fence onto the dirt in my side yard, was the same thing as delivering to my door. This is the third time one of their drivers has tossed a package over the fence. What are they thinking??

The dietary supplement industry is not regulated so I am always a little unsure if the dietary supplements I purchase are really what they say they are - there is no way to know. I have been using KAL Red Yeast Rice Once Daily for almost a year now. I take RYR at the direction of my cardiologist to reduce LDL cholesterol levels. It works. My LDL cholesterol dropped significantly. High cholesterol runs in my family. I pay very close attention to my diet and I exercise fairly vigorously 5-6 times a week and have for many years. Once I turned 55 my cholesterol started creeping up despite diet and exercise.

This is good quality item. I have beenVery pleased with it. I take 1 in the morning and 1 at night. It was recommended by a Doctor. He specified it had to be this brand, this has made it possible for me to stay off cholesterol meds. It rasies my good cholesterol (HDL). Off setting my bad.

The size of the tabs has decreased my compliance with taking these daily.

My husband has had excellent results using Red Yeast Rice to reduce his cholesterol without enduring the Liver-ruining side effects of statins. It was actually recommended to him by a doctor! We have had best results with the KAL brand, cheaper brands use more fillers and tend to be constipating. Stick with the good stuff for your health!
