Anything the FDA wants to shutdown or remove from market just makes me want to buy it even more

it acts through the same mechanisms at the statin drugs do, so if you are taking this stuff, you need to make sure you pair coq10 with it as well

The FDA will shut down or take off of the shelves, anything that works just a little bit too well. Not sure about this particular situation but if it works well and could be cutting profits to the major drug companies ..... well .... is anyone surprised?

It lowers bad cholesterol in the blood, When I used to be a manager at a supplement store I would sell this stuff all the time. All of my customers reported extremely positive results. It does lower total cholesterol but has a greater influence on LDL.

It works for alot of people

The FDA wants to ban any supplement that takes money out of the pharmaceutical companys pockets. That is why there is so many lobbyist for the pharmaceutical industry. the FDA has been pegged by more than one govt agency as The Most Corrupt branch of govt there is!

I have a couple friends that have used it and they said it definitely lowered their cholesterol. The bad side effect was a lot of joint pain...

red yeast rice works like a charm. i know many people who used it to lower their cholesterol. i'm using it now so my next blood test will show the same results hopefully.

it really pisses me off that the gov't can get away with stuff like that. banning a healthy substance so they can sell you harmful drugs. it makes me sick.
