🌾 What Is Red Yeast Rice?
Red yeast rice is produced through the fermentation of white rice (Oryza sativa) with the microorganism Monascus purpureus.
During this fermentation process, naturally occurring compounds known as monacolins are formed.
ArmoLIPID uses red fermented rice as the central ingredient of its classic formula.
Per Daily Tablet
Monacolins — 2.8 mg
Because red yeast rice products containing monacolins are subject to specific European intake restrictions, the recommended daily dosage should not be exceeded. The manufacturer specifically states that 3 mg or more of monacolins from red yeast rice per day must not be consumed.
🧬 Folic Acid
ArmoLIPID also contains Folic Acid.
Folate contributes to:
Normal homocysteine metabolism*
Normal blood formation*
Normal psychological function*
Normal immune system function*
Reduction of tiredness and fatigue*
*Approved EU nutrition and health claims.
This is also useful from an SEO perspective because it gives the product a broader nutritional profile than a simple red yeast rice supplement.
❤️ Coenzyme Q10
Another characteristic ingredient in the ArmoLIPID formula is:
Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10)
CoQ10 is a naturally occurring compound found throughout the human body. The ArmoLIPID brand notes that particularly high concentrations occur in the heart and that the body's own ability to produce CoQ10 may decline with age.
Rather than supplying red yeast rice alone, ArmoLIPID combines it with CoQ10 as part of its multi-ingredient formula.
✨ Astaxanthin
ArmoLIPID additionally contains Astaxanthin, supplied from an astaxanthin-rich oleoresin derived from the microalga Haematococcus pluvialis.
This gives the Classic formula four principal components:
Red Yeast Rice
Folic Acid
Coenzyme Q10
Astaxanthin.
