as in many many "drugs"...they are basically precursors
ie Digoxin is foxglove..yes..an herb..and hardly "safe" enuf for folks like
you to take without advice of professionals...blood tests to measure Dig
levels etc....too much or too little is NOT safe
as for red yeast rice...yes it is a "food"...it is also exactly the same as
a certain statin...difference being that "evil pharma" requires that each
pill is exactly the dose as the next one....supplements,,and foods...do not
have this safety...
might as well buy your "pills in India" where uniform dosing is also a fairy
tale
