Monolipid K® 90 caps.
Product description
Monolipid K® contains a unique combination of red rice yeast extract (standardised for Monacolin K – phytostatin) and vitamins B6, B12 and folic acid. Monacolin K is a natural statin that helps to maintain normal blood cholesterol levels.
Vitamins B6, B12 and folic acid additionally contribute to the normal metabolism of homocysteine in the body. Homocysteine is considered an independent factor in the development of, among other things: atherosclerotic lesions, myocardial infarction, stroke and thrombotic lesions.
In addition, Monolipid K® has been enriched with Coenzyme Q10 and Chromium.
Vcaps® are specialized, patented plant-based capsules made of HPMC (plant cellulose) and water – without preservatives and gelatin. Recommended for vegans and vegetarians.
Studies regarding the dosage of 3 mg:
Regarding the amount of 3 mg of monacolin K in a dietary supplement, available studies still show good effects of monacolin K despite the reduced dose. Participants in the supplementation group consumed 3 mg of monacolin K and 200 μg of folic acid daily. In the supplementation group, after 12 weeks, a significant (P < .001) reduction in LDL-C (-14.8%), total cholesterol (-11.2%) and homocysteine (-12.5%) was determined. A total of 51% of RYR-treated participants achieved a cut-off LDL-C level of <4.14 mmol/L, and 26% achieved a cut-off homocysteine level of <10 μmol/L. There were no significant changes in the placebo group. Other parameters remained unchanged and no intolerance or serious adverse events were observed. In conclusion, a low daily dose of 3 mg of monacolin K has been shown to reduce LDL-C as a risk factor for cardiovascular disease.
