It is used to protect nerves, construct cell tissues, and make certain hormones. Cholesterol is a very important substance, and is needed in small quantities for the body to function normally.

What Is Total Cholesterol Level in blood?
Our cholesterol level is measured in milligrams per deciliter of blood (mg/dL). Three measures are used to calculate total cholesterol level: [5]
- HDL cholesterol (HDL-C), which is the ‘good’ kind of cholesterol
- LDL cholesterol (LDL-C), which is the ‘bad’ kind of cholesterol
- Triglyceride level (TG).
Your optimal cholesterol levels will vary depending on your gender, age, blood pressure, obesity, and a number of other hereditary and lifestyle factors – including whether or not you smoke. [6]
NCEP ATP III defines the risk of developing coronary heart disease and other cholesterol related conditions, if under fasting, LDL-C less than 100mg/dL is the optimal goal for treatment. For people at very high risk, LDL-C less than 70mg/dL is a therapeutic option. [7-8]
What Is Your Triglyceride Level?
Triglycerides are a fat that is produced by our body. In general if you have a high triglyceride level it is likely that your total cholesterol level will also be high, as well as your LDL cholesterol level. People with a high triglyceride level usually have a low HDL level and are more at risk of a heart attack or stroke. [9-10]
Risk factors for high triglyceride levels include obesity, smoking, alcohol consumption, physical inactivity, and a high carbohydrate diet. [7]

Extracts of red yeast rice contains several active ingredients as family of monacolin-related substances, sterols, isoflavones and monounsaturated fatty acids. The largest type of monacolins is monacolin K which also known as naturally occurring statin (lovastatin). It works by blocking an enzyme (HMG-CoA reductase) necessary in the formation of cholesterol and by speeding up the catabolism of LDL from the blood. Red Yeast Rice is a nutritional product, the effects are similar to the medicinal products (Statin).
