And my wife was getting concerned now, as well. That is her basic daily program. So, in addition to those items, here is what I added. First, Cholestame, from Jarrow Formulas, a nice combination formula that contains a high level of red yeast rice extract. Now, Cholestame is one of those products designed to promote normal cholesterol metabolism, or, perhaps more accurately, to correct cholesterol metabolism problems.
Many companies have similar products.
But I wanted to give her high levels of both red yeast rice extract and niacin. Beyond Cholesterol has high niacin, but lower red yeast rice. Cholestame has lower niacin, but higher red yeast rice. The Cholestame, by Jarrow, not only contains red yeast rice extract, but it also contains other nutrients and herbs that affect cholesterol metabolism B CoQ10, Artichoke Leaf Extract, Gum Guggul, Alpha Lipoic Acid, Grape Seed Extract, Pantethine, Lutein and Taurine. Lutein and 250 mg Taurine.
