NOW Foods Red Yeast Rice, 600mg

Red yeast rice begins as ordinary rice fermented with a Monascus yeast — the process that gives it both its colour and its name. NOW Foods capsules it at 600mg.

Veg capsule bottles come in 60 and 120 counts. The brand also produces Red Omega, a softgel that combines red yeast rice with omega oils, listed separately at NE Commerce. Fermentation-derived products are a small but distinct corner of the NOW catalogue, and this is one of its long-standing entries.
