Red Yeast Rice, also known as Went Yeast, is produced by culturing rice with strains of the mold Monascus purpureus, during which it acquires its reddish-purple color. The chemical composition of Red Yeast Rice varies between strains and production processes. Dependent on how it is produced, Red Yeast Rice finds its most common applications in food products and supplements. It is often used in a powdered form as food coloring for fish, beverages, cheese, and pastries where it also functions as a taste enhancer.

Red Yeast Rice contains unsaturated fatty acids, isoflavones, phytosterols and compounds called monacolins which have been known in some cases to affect cholesterol levels.  As a result, it has seen use in certain dietary supplements for cholesterol and heart health.
