Red Yeast Rice...

[lillian743]

Has anyone taken it before? I just got some today only because I remember when I was a little girl this Chinese lady said it will make my hair grow. I read it helps to improve blood circulation and helps your Cholesterol.

I tryed looking for some, but all I can really go on is what that lady told me.. You guys said that promoteing blood circulation will help out with hair growth and that is just one of the things red rice does. I heard that the Chinese women hair grows faster than ours, and I also found out that they have red rice in alot of the stuff they eat. Well heres a web site I dont know if it will help out... http://www.ivillage.com/arrival?arrivalURL=http%3A//www.allhealth.com/library/onemed/content/0%2C%2C241012_248637%2C00.html&arrivalPromoID=565081&arrival_freqVal=1&arrival_freqInterval=days&arrival_freq=1&cobrandRef=0
