Solaray Red Yeast Rice Plus CoQ10 - 60 VegCaps

Item #: 8892 | UPC: 076280088922 | Brand: Solaray Maintain healthy cardiovascular function and balanced lipid profiles with Solaray Red Yeast Rice Plus CoQ10. This advanced, triple-action formula combines traditional fermented botanicals with cellular coenzymes and flush-free vitamin B-3 to deliver targeted nutritional support for your heart, arteries, and cellular energy production. Produced through the traditional fermentation of non-GMO red rice with Monascus purpureus yeast, Solaray’s red yeast rice extract provides 600 mg of premium botanical extract per vegetarian capsule. Paired with 30 mg of pure Coenzyme Q10 and 50 mg of non-flush niacin (as Inositol Hexanicotinate), this supplement provides a synergistic, bioavailable approach to everyday heart wellness.

Why Pair Red Yeast Rice with CoQ10?

A common challenge with red yeast rice supplementation is its natural effect on cellular energy pathways. The active monacolins in fermented red rice yeast work along the mevalonate pathway - the exact same enzymatic pathway responsible for the natural synthesis of Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10). Because inhibiting this pathway can lower circulating levels of CoQ10 in heart tissue and skeletal muscle, combining Red Yeast Rice with CoQ10 is essential. Solaray’s balanced formulation replenishes vital CoQ10 levels to:
  • Support Cellular ATP Energy: Fuels mitochondria in hard-working cardiac muscles.
  • Combat Muscle Fatigue: Helps minimize the muscle stiffness and soreness frequently reported with standalone red yeast rice supplements.
  • Deliver Antioxidant Defense: Protects LDL cholesterol particles against oxidative degradation, supporting smooth arterial flow.

Triple-Action Heart Health Benefits

  • Promotes Healthy Cholesterol Levels: Helps maintain total cholesterol, LDL ("bad") cholesterol, and triglyceride levels already within the normal physiological range.
  • Flush-Free Niacin Synergy: Features 50 mg of Inositol Hexanicotinate - a non-flushing form of Vitamin B-3 that aids lipid metabolism and peripheral circulation without uncomfortable facial redness or itching.
  • Mitochondrial & Vascular Support: CoQ10 enhances cellular respiration, endothelial wall integrity, and nitric oxide activity for optimal blood flow.
  • Lab-Verified Citrinin-Free: Certified to contain less than 1 ppm of the fungal by-product citrinin using advanced UPLC-MS laboratory testing.
  • 100% Non-Irradiated & Vegetarian: Formulated in clean vegetable cellulose capsules with zero synthetic fillers or animal gelatin.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What is Solaray Red Yeast Rice Plus CoQ10 used for?

Solaray Red Yeast Rice Plus CoQ10 is formulated to support cardiovascular health, maintain healthy lipid and cholesterol levels already within a normal range, and promote cellular energy production. It provides a natural, botanical alternative for individuals seeking nutritional circulatory support.

Why does this supplement include Inositol Hexanicotinate instead of standard Niacin?

Standard niacin (nicotinic acid) frequently triggers a rapid dilation of blood vessels near the skin, causing a harmless but uncomfortable warm, tingling sensation known as the "niacin flush." Solaray utilizes Inositol Hexanicotinate, a specialized, bonded form of Vitamin B-3 that metabolizes gradually, delivering vascular and cholesterol benefits without flushing.

What does "Certified Citrinin-Free" mean?

Citrinin is an undesirable mycotoxin produced during the fermentation of rice when conditions are improperly managed. High levels of citrinin can place toxic stress on the kidneys. Solaray subjects every batch of raw red yeast rice to Ultra Performance Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (UPLC-MS) testing to verify that citrinin levels are undetectable (less than 1 part per million).

How long does it take for Red Yeast Rice with CoQ10 to work?

Most clinical evaluations of red yeast rice extract observe noticeable changes in lipid biomarkers within 4 to 8 weeks of consistent daily supplementation. Because individual metabolic rates vary, it is recommended to have your physician monitor your lipid profile every 60 to 90 days.

Can I take Solaray Red Yeast Rice Plus CoQ10 with prescription statin drugs?

No. Because red yeast rice naturally contains monacolins that work along the same biochemical pathway as prescription HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors (statins), combining them may increase the risk of muscle stiffness, myopathy, or elevated liver enzymes. Always consult your prescribing physician before combining botanical extracts with cardiovascular pharmaceuticals.

Is this product suitable for vegetarians?

Yes. Solaray Red Yeast Rice Plus CoQ10 is encapsulated in 100% plant-derived vegetable cellulose capsules and contains no bovine or porcine gelatin, dairy, or animal derivatives.

My cholesterol was at a high of 238. I tried eating nothing but grilled chicken, brown rice, and veges AND working out 2-3-4 times a week. It dropped down to 205. I heard about Red Yeast Rice through a Consumer Report. I've been taking it for about a year, not eating completely healthy foods, but my cholesterol dropped to a low of 174. I ran out for a couple months and my cholesterol went back up to 220+. I tried another brand and the level barely went down. I'm back on the Nature's Plus Extended Release and my cholesterol levels are on their way back DOWN. I'm a firm believer in this herb as produced by THIS company. Try it. Hopefully it works for you like it works for me. Remember, though, we're all genetically different.

This is a fantastic dietary supplement. It is the best that I have tried so far. It not only keeps your appetite down but it also gives you tons of energy. I could hardly believe the price of it!!! 60 tablets for that price was really good. I have wasted tons of money on dietary supplements and finally I found one that is worth it. Red Yeast Rice is also good for you...it has a good amount of fiber, which is needed in your daily diet. It also works for vegetarians...I have only had a good experience so far. I highly recommend the use of this product.

I am very pleased to have found a natural tablet to help control help with my bad circulation. I don't feel I am at a stage to start with prescription drugs and if I can control it naturally then I may never need to. I definitely feel alot better. I was encouraged to try the tablets because I have read that people who ate a high rice diet never suffered from hypertension. I would definitely recommend that you give them a try
