The Hong Qu or the red rice yeast is one good example of a natural cholesterol combatant. The Food and Drugs Administration believes that this natural substance originating from China can indeed inhibit cholesterol building in the human body. The Monacolin-K component found in red rice yeast is acting as the inhibitor of the enzyme known as HMG-Coa reductase, which acts as the cholesterol trigger. As a matter of fact, with the conclusion of the 12-week study conducted at the UCLA School of Medicine, where respondents were randomly receiving an amount of red yeast rice, the study has arrived at the following benefits that the human heart can receive from using this natural substance.
There was a significant reduction in the total cholesterol levels; there was a lower level of LDL or the commonly termed "bad" cholesterol; there was an increase in the HDL level known as the good cholesterol; and it reduced the level of unhealthy fats called triglycerides.
"The study showed that the red rice yeast appeared to be restricting the liver's production of cholesterol." The compound responsible for this effect is chemically similar to the cholesterol lowering compoundlovastatin.
The unsaturated fatty acids found to present in the red yeast rice extract are also found to be useful to lower down the level of triglycerides. "The red yeast rice extract may help mitigate heart disease occurrences" and their associated complications because of its effects in decreasing cholesterol content in the human body.
