How Does Aged Garlic Extract with Red Yeast Rice work?
Aged garlic extract is an extract of garlic bulbs fermented in a diluted alcohol solution for up to two years. This long-aging fermentation process breaks down garlic's sulfur-containing properties, creating an odorless substance rich in active bioavailable compounds.
One of these compounds, S-allyl-cysteine (SAC), is believed to promote healthy cholesterol levels. A derivative of the amino acid cysteine, SAC also demonstrates high antioxidant activity, giving it the potential to help protect healthy cells from the damaging effects of free radicals.

Red yeast rice is the fermentation by-product of a strain of yeast (Monascus purpureus) on cooked, non-glutinous rice. It contains fiber, rice starch and fatty acids, as well as compounds known as monacolins, which provide natural benefits for cholesterol health.
The majority of the body's cholesterol is produced in the liver, and elements in red yeast rice—specifically, a substance known as mevinolin—may effectively restrict its production. Red yeast rice also contains monounsaturated fatty acids that may help promote healthy serum lipid levelsSupplement FactsServing Size: 2 CapsulesServings per Container: 90Amount Per Serving% Daily ValueAged Garlic Extract 4:1 (Allium sativum)(bulb)600 mg*Red Yeast Rice600 mg**Daily value not established.Other Ingredients: Kosher gelatin (capsule), cellulose, magnesium stearate and silica.
