HealthWise Koji8 (Red Yeast Rice)

A staple in Traditional Chinese Medicine since the Tang Dynasty (circa 800 A.D.), Red Yeast Rice has long been valued for its naturally occurring monacolins, which support heart health. In addition to its traditional medicinal uses, it also adds a rich red colour and subtle umami flavour to foods such as pickled tofu, red rice vinegar, and Peking Duck.
