Red Yeast Rice is a unique
natural product native to China that’s been used in Asian traditional medical
systems since approximately 800 A.D. Produced by fermenting red yeast (Monascus
purpureus) with white rice, Red Yeast Rice is commonly used in cooking applications
to enhance the color and flavor of foods. Peking Duck is an example of the coloration
and flavor imparted by Red Yeast Rice. NOW® Red Yeast Rice Extract is carefully
produced to avoid the presence of citrinin, a sometimes toxic by-product of the
fermentation process.
