Can you explain the OsteoSun label warnings in more detail?
Absolutely. Although the scientific studies of red yeast rice, and the regular use by millions of individuals over thousands of years, have shown it to be well tolerated and to have no significant side effects, there are some areas about which it would be wise to be cautious. Health care professionals warn that you should not use either pharmaceutical statins (see below) or red yeast rice if you suffer from liver disease, or if you are pregnant or nursing. Keep out of reach of children. OsteoSun is intended for use by adults. Red yeast rice is also known to lower cholesterol levels. Growing children need ample cholesterol for their healthy development. Although inadvertent use of OsteoSun would in no way be harmful to a child, children should not use OsteoSun. This caveat is also extended to pregnant women (the fetus needs cholesterol for healthy growth) and women who might become pregnant. The red yeast rice strain found in OsteoSun is not designed or marketed for lowering cholesterol
