Hello, What can you say about the Weider Red Yeast Rice Plus from COSTCO?
I don’t see there any Lovastatin or Minacolin K”. It said just 1200mg of Monascus Purpureus.

I think there is an error in the section “check the percentage of Lovastatin or Minacolin K”. It says “the lower” the better and it should be “the higher” the better.
