Red yeast rice contains chemicals that are similar to prescription statin medications. One of these, called monacolin K, has the same makeup as the drug lovastatin (Mevacor). Doctors prescribe statins to lower "bad" LDL cholesterol levels and help reduce the risk of heart disease. Red yeast rice contains substances known as monacolins. One of these, monacolin K, has the same chemical makeup as lovastatin (Mevacor), a prescription drug that lowers cholesterol. One study by UCLA School of Medicine involved 83 people with high cholesterol levels.

"Good" HDL cholesterol levels did not change in either study group.
