Hi, does anyone have information on Red Yeast Rice and side effects? My last checkup showed: Cholesterol 252, HDL 54, and LDL 180. I am 40, and 20 lbs overweight. My doctor gave me six months to lower these levels thru diet & exercise. I have read about the horrible side effects of drugs, and after much research have decided to take these supplements on a daily basis: Red Yeast Rice 600mg, Niacin 1000mg, Lecithin 2400mg, and Flaxseed. I've cut down drastically on red meats, sugars, and white breads. Am also exercising five times a week. Hope to see some results in about a month. Any insight on Red Yeast Rice is appreciated. Thanks
