All Other Content: How It Work: Red Yeast Rice is a natural product that has been used by Asian traditional herbalists since approximately 800 A.D.

Formulation re: Does NOT Contain: Protocol For Life Balance Red Yeast Rice Extract is carefully produced to avoid the presence of citrinin, an unwanted by-product of the fermentation process
