nothing comes close
On a scale of 1-10 this product is a 10. The second best red yeast rice product on that same scale would be a 2. If I couldn't use this, I wouldn't use any. And my lab results prove to me that it works.

My doctor told me to take one tablet of Chinese red rice yeast 600 mg at bedtime for 4 weeks. Originally I had bought Vitamin Shoppe brand at 1200 mg (which he had originally told me to get) but the pills were too big and I have a problem swallowing. Do you have either a 600 mg tablet of either Cholestene or your Vitamin Shoppe brand? I'm wondering if he made a mistake on the dosage and meant 1200 mg daily. Everyone seems to be on a regimen of 4 1200 mg daily. Thanks for your reply and I will wait to purchase until I hear. Much appreciate your time.
Did anyone experience side effects with this product? Any headaches or muscle pain or elevated liver enzymes?

Best Answer:  I I have taken this product since it was introduced in I think the 1990s. I take 2400 mg per day because my cholesterol is naturally 300. It reduced My cholesterol to190 and my LDL from 1:80 to 120 with no side effects.

I had an angiogram of my heart a year ago. My heart arteries were almost clear.

Cholestine blocks cholesterol produced in the liver. You can also take plant sterols that work differently absorbing cholesterol from the food you eat to lower it further.

Do I need to take CoQ10 with Cholestene?

Best Answer:  No. It is an excellent product though. My husband and I have taken it at one time or another but you do not have to take it with the Cholestene. JC
