NOW Red Yeast Rice is carefully produced to avoid the presence of citrinin, a sometimes toxic by-product of the fermentation process. Red Yeast Rice is a unique natural product native to China that's been used in Asian traditional medical systems since approximately 800 A.D. Produced by fermenting red yeast (Monascus purpureus) with white rice, Red Yeast Rice is commonly used in cooking applications to enhance the color and flavor of foods. Peking Duck is an example of the coloration and flavor imparted by Red Yeast Rice.

Vegetarian/Vegan product. Contains no sugar, salt, wheat, gluten, soy, milk, egg, shellfish or preservatives.

Red Yeast Rice Extract 2 5 1 1
Could not swallow I purchased this product because my doctor told me to take Red Yeast Rice 1200mg. These pills were so long and so THICK that I could not swallow them. I even bought a pill cutter and cut them in 1/2 and they still got stuck in my throat and it hurt the side of my throat where they were lodged. I tried cutting them length wise and that made them crumble. I sent them back to Swanson. June 2, 2010
