If Red Yeast Rice Is Similar To the Statin Drug “Lovastatin”, Does It Have Any Negative Side-Effects?
Remember that red yeast rice is a 100% natural food and not a drug. While other statin prescription drugs do have numerous negative side-effects, Red Yeast Rice usually does not. I say usually because when the wrong FORM is used, it does have negative effects. The key is to have the toxic by-product called “citrinin” REMOVED from the fermentation process and you want to ONLY use the “extract” form of red yeast rice.
