NusaPure Red Yeast Rice 1800mg 180 Veggie Capsules (Non-GMO, Vegan)

NusaPure Red Yeast Rice 1800mg 180 Veggie Capsules (Non-GMO, Vegan) is a product from NusaPure, categorized under Cardiovascular & heart health in the Supplements vertical. It is scored on the Vyvata Scoring Framework — an independent 6-dimension rubric applied uniformly to every product Vyvata lists.

55/100 overall — Standard tier (50–69 band). Per-dimension breakdown: Evidence 68, Formulation 62, Transparency 55, Manufacturing 50, Safety 45, Sustainability 45. Scored as of 2026-08-24.

Red yeast rice (Monascus purpureus) 1800mg. Real LDL-lowering evidence from monacolin K (chemically identical to prescription lovastatin) content — the effective active is statin-like and carries statin-adjacent safety concerns (myopathy, liver enzyme elevation, coenzyme Q10 depletion). Held below Verified by (1) monacolin K content is NOT standardized in the US (FDA considers standardized monacolin K products as unapproved drugs) — content varies 10x+ across brands; (2) same drug-interaction and side-effect profile as statins should apply but warning language is typically absent from supplement labels; (3) NO CoQ10 co-formulation despite the well-established statin/CoQ10 depletion pattern; (4) contamination with citrinin (nephrotoxic mycotoxin) has been documented in RYR products. Would move to Verified 70+ with third-party monacolin K + citrinin assay + prominent statin-adjacent safety disclosure + CoQ10 co-formulation.

Strongest: Evidence at 68/100 (quality of published RCT support for the active ingredients at the label dose) and Formulation at 62/100 (dose adequacy, bioavailability form, and ingredient redundancy). Weakest: Safety at 45/100 (adverse-event profile, interaction risk, and dose ceiling) and Sustainability at 45/100 (sourcing practices, packaging, and corporate practice). All six dimensions feed the overall Vyvata score; a weakness on any one dimension pulls the overall down proportionally.

No third-party certifications (NSF, USP, ConsumerLab, or equivalent) were on record at the time of scoring. This affects the Manufacturing dimension score. The manufacturer may test internally or have obtained certification more recently — check the current product label for the most up-to-date information.

Would move to Verified 70+ with third-party monacolin K + citrinin assay + prominent statin-adjacent safety disclosure + CoQ10 co-formulation.
