Additionally, this product has a bright color, pure color, and fullness. It is also thermally and lights stable, making it an ideal colorant for natural green food.

The main active ingredient in red yeast extract is lovastatin, which is a new type of lipid-lowering drug that was first listed in the 1980s.

The Red Yeast Extract Function

• Anti-obesity activity

Red yeast extract has been shown to impede the growth and differentiation of 3T3-L1 pre-fat cells. It can lead to increased lipolytic activity in mature fat cells.

However, there is no observed effect on the activity of heparin-releasing lipoprotein lipolytic enzyme.

• Anticancer activity

Red yeast extract has been shown to significantly reduce the growth of colon cancer cells HCT-116 and HT-29, as well as promote cell death (apoptosis).

Even after the removal of the lovastatin component, the red yeast extract still had an inhibitory effect on colon cancer cells. However, adding mevalonate to cultured colon cancer cells reversed the tumor suppressor effect of lovastatin, but had no effect on the Erythroxylum extract.

• Efficacy in preventing and treating Alzheimer’s disease

Red Yeast Rice Extract has a more powerful protective effect than a large quantity of pure monacolinK. This is because except for monacolin K, Red Yeast Rice Extract also contains antioxidant and anti-inflammatory active ingredients.

The potential synergistic effects of these ingredients make Red Yeast Extract more effective in inhibiting the Aβ40-induced inflammatory response, as well as oxidative damage.

Therefore, there is one possibility that we can use the red yeast extract to create a new type of healthy food, which is help prevent and treat Alzheimer’s disease.

• Prevention and treatment of osteoporosis

Red yeast extract contains ergosterol, which is a precursor to fat-soluble vitamin D2. This vitamin is produced by an ultraviolet photochemical reaction, and it plays an important role in regulating the metabolic function of life.

This vitamin can also promote the absorption of calcium and phosphorus by pregnant women and the elderly.
