Choleast-900 provides naturally occurring monacolins, phytosterols, and isoflavones for maintenance of healthy lipid levels. Red yeast rice also promotes health lipid particle size and number.
Maintaining an optimal LDL cholesterol level is an important component of maintaining good cardiovascular health. Numerous studies in China and the United States have concluded that preparations of red yeast rice help to maintain blood cholesterol levels already in the normal range. Choleast-900 contains Monascus purpureus, a red-pigmented yeast grown on rice. It also contains consistent amounts of the naturally-occurring monacolins found in red yeast rice– without standardization or fortification – along with the phytosterols beta-sitosterol, campesterol, and stigmasterol, as well as isoflavones and trace minerals, all of which can contribute to good cardiovascular health. With 50-percent more red yeast rice than our Choleast product, Choleast-900 requires fewer capsules for easier supplementation.

Thorne's Choleast 900 is a natural statin that I take instead of pharmaceutical statins. I have experienced no side effects from taking it and it has helped lower my cholesterol levels for years. I highly recommend it as a natural alternative to pharmaceutical statins.

This product is super effective! My LDL was 145(too high!) now it has recently changed to 111. I am happy as is my doctor. I will continue to use this produce as opposed to a prescribed statin.

I started Biosil last year and my fingernails are ten times stronger and healthier than a year ago. My hair is looking better too! I won't go back to regular powdered collagen. Thanks to the wonderful women at Farmacopia for steering me in the right direction.
This tincture is perfect for times when I wake and know I need more sleep.
A few droppers full and I can relax fall back in and wake rested.
Great product
