Red Yeast Rice
Red yeast rice is rice that has been fermented by the red yeast, Monascus purpureus. It has been used by the Chinese for many centuries as a food preservative and food colorant. Red yeast rice is a common item used for cooking in China, Japan, and Asia, with an estimated average consumption of 14 to 55 grams of red yeast rice per day per person.
Red yeast rice also has been used in China for over 1,000 years to support healthy function.

Allicin and Alliin -- Known Medicinal Qualities
Allicin and many of its derivatives have been reported in the scientific literature to be immune system supportive. Fresh Garlic juice and freeze-dried Garlic juice powder both exhibit high, broad-spectrum immune system support in the intestine.
Garlic is known for its beneficial cardiovascular support. It has been demonstrated to normalize serum cholesterol, triglycerides, plaque reduction and blood pressure.
A good deal of research also indicates that Garlic can detoxify carcinogenic substances, boosting the immune system. Allicin may be responsible for some of these effects, although other components of Garlic are important too.
Alliin and allicin are also involved (along with other compounds) in the proven antioxidant effects of Garlic. This effect is dose-dependent, as excessive concentrations of allicin may act as pro-oxidants.
Cayenne
Many herbalists believe that Cayenne is the most useful and valuable herb in the herb kingdom, not only for the entire digestive system, but also for the heart and circulatory system. It acts as a catalyst and increases the effectiveness of other herbs when used with them. It is a very high source of Vitamins A & C, has the complete B complexes, and is very rich in organic calcium and potassium, which is one of the reasons it is good for the heart
Actions: Stimulant, carminative, sialagogue.
Indications: Cayenne is the most useful of the systemic stimulants. Its stimulates blood flow, strengthening the heart, arteries, capillaries and nerves. A general tonic, it is also specific for both circulatory and digestive system. If there is insufficient peripheral circulation, leading to cold hands and feet and possibly chilblains, Cayenne may be used.
Niacin
Niacin can be very effective and safe in regulating low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and triglyceride levels and also in nutritionally increasing high-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels. It may be the most cost-effective lipid-regulating agent currently available.
