Choleastâ„¢: A Red Yeast Rice and CoQ10 Formula for Cardiovascular Health
Thorne’s Choleast™ is a thoughtfully formulated supplement designed to support the maintenance of healthy cholesterol levels. This formula combines the power of red yeast rice, a traditional botanical used for centuries, with the essential nutrient Coenzyme Q10. Red yeast rice naturally contains compounds called monacolins, which have been extensively studied for their ability to support cardiovascular health. Choleast™ provides a trusted, natural approach for individuals seeking to maintain cholesterol levels already in the normal range.*
How It Works: The Synergy of Monacolins and CoQ10
This formula provides a dual-action approach to cardiovascular wellness by supporting cholesterol balance and cellular energy.*
Supporting Healthy Cholesterol Levels
The key ingredient, Red Yeast Rice, is produced by fermenting rice with the yeast Monascus purpureus. This process creates a group of compounds, most notably monacolin K, that work in the liver to support the healthy production of cholesterol. As a result, it helps to maintain already normal levels of total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, and triglycerides.*
Replenishing Essential Coenzyme Q10
An important consideration with red yeast rice is that the mechanism by which it works can also reduce the body’s natural production of Coenzyme Q10. CoQ10 is a vital, vitamin-like nutrient that is essential for energy production in every cell, especially the high-energy cells of the heart. For this reason, Choleast™ includes **Coenzyme Q10** to replenish this crucial nutrient, which supports cardiovascular energy and provides antioxidant protection.*
