• About Us : History of Red Yeast Rice Red Yeast Rice is Chinese traditional fermented product, and with a thousand of year edible history. It is used for food and medicine in AC tenth centry in China, and it is considered as costful health care product, and has good cure for some deseases. The usages and functions of the Red Yeast Rice in medicine ZHEJIANG SANHE BIO-TECH CO.,LTDre expatiated in some Chinese Literature. Modern Research for Red Yeast Rice Red Yeast Rice was reserched and developed by Chinese,Japanese and other country Researcher. In 1970s'years, A Japanese scholar found Monacolin-K which is able for lowering blood cholesterol level in human from secondary metabolites produced from the Monascus species. From that time on, people pay attention to Red Yeast Rice. In the same time, A researcher from Merck Company in USA separated Mevinolin which is able for lowering blood cholesterol level in human from metabolites produced from Unrefined Monascus species, and it is named for Lovastatin.And then The Company had patent right for Lovastatin. Monacolin-K and Lovastatin have the same Molecule Structure, they are same substance, just different source. In 1985 American Scientist Goldstein and Brown found that Monacolin-K which is a potent competitive inhibitor of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase(HMG-CoA reductase), the rate-limiting enzyme in cholesterol biosynthesis, they were awarded by Nobel for the discovery, and Red Yeast Rice is famous from that time. There are two forms in Monacolin-K, one is in Lactone form, and the other is in Acid form(MVA). Forward research by some experts, they found that Monacolin-K is not active by itself, it has lowering blood cholesterol level action when Monacolin-K is transformed for active substance-Acid form Monacolin-K (MVA) from carboxylic fat enzyme hydrolyzing produced from body. But it need consume carboxylic fat enzyme in the body in the process, and it will burthen liver and kidney. Acid form Monacolin-K(MVA) is active substance, and have direct action for lowering blood cholesterol level, and don't burthen liver and kidney.So far, clinical experiment showed that it don't have any side-effect to human body, so higher acid form Monacolin-K(MVA) content in Red Yeast Rice, better quality Red Yeast Rice is. Processing Research for Red Yeast Rice, people found other effective ingredients in national fermented Red Yeast Rice, such as:GABA which is able for antihypertensive action and prevention from old-age dementia;Glucosamine which has the action of assuring boned joint's good work;Lecithin which is able for anti-aging in blood vessel and increasing high density lipoprotein cholesterol and increasing energy in brain cell; and Flavonoids and antitumor promotion action,native antioxidant Dimerumic Acid. Clinical Experiment for human and animals showed: Red Yeast Rice has distinct action for lowering blood cholesterol lever, 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase(HMG-CoA reductase),the rate-limiting enzyme in cholesterol biosynthesis,arteriosclerosis exponent. It is applicable for high blood cholesterol level disease, hypertension and coronary heart disease,cardiopathy which is resulted from arteriosclerosis, and some diseases which is relative with high blood cholesterol level, such as diabetes and fat liver disease. And it is effective for osteoporosis, and improving stomach and intestines, anti-tire, good action for kidney ,germ cell and spleen, and also increasing immunosuppressive for body.
