high cholesterol
"Been taking Red Yeast Rice for 6 months now.  It lowered my cholesterol from 269 to 109.  Take 2400 mg daily (2 1200 doses) half after breakfast and half after dinner.  Crestor was what I started with, couldn't take after 20 days.  Too many side effects.  Red Yeast Rice also helped my stomach problems (always indigested).  Recommend you talk to your doctor and give it a try."
