Red Yeast Rice, Fish Oil Aid Weight-Loss, Cholesterol Reduction

08/28/2008

A regimen of red yeast rice, fish oil regimen and lifestyle coaching has proved just as effective as statin medication in fighting high cholesterol and more effective in weight-loss, new research suggested. The study showed a 40 percent cholesterol drop and a 10 pound weight-less over 12 weeks in people who took red yeast rice, fish oil and received diet, exercise and relaxation counseling, compared to those who took the statin also saw a 40 percent cholesterol drop but only loss less than a pound.
