ROSSOPURO® Forte is a proprietary blend of natural origin components derived from fermented rice and plants specifically designed to support hearth health.
Overview
Heart health is vital to overall wellness.
According to the American College of Cardiology, the percentage of people under 40 having heart attacks has risen two percent a year, year over year, for the past 10 years (American College of Cardiology’s 68th Annual Scientific Session, 2019). Embracing hearth health habits start with nutrition and exercise which are two essential aspects to support cardiovascular and circulatory health. However, our modern busy and sedentary lifestyle paired with poor eating habits make hard to maintain optimal levels of some cardiovascular parameters such as cholesterol and triglyceride profile as well as a healthy inflammatory response.
Researched and developed by Giellepi, ROSSOPURO® Forte is a proprietary synergistic blend consisting of natural origin fermented yeast rice, gamma oryzanol and gamma aminobutyric acid designed for reaching a new level of heart health.
ROSSOPURO® Forte allows for greater formulation flexibility giving product developers the possibility to add in the final formula other beneficial ingredients.

Carefully fermented to provide a selected profile of Monacolins.
Third party tested for purity and quality.
Small daily dose.
Composition
ROSSOPURO® Forte is crafted with care in small batches by fermentation of a yeast called Monascus purpureous. Our standardized fermentation conditions naturally enrich the rice with substances known as monacolins, including Monacolin K. To further enhance the product’s functionality, Gamma Oryzanol (from Oryza sativa L.) and Gamma Aminobutyric Acid (from Zea mays L.) are then added in a specific ratio to the final formula.
Applications
- People who struggle to follow a proper diet and a regular exercise routine due to a busy lifestyle
- Healthy consumers who are seeking a healthy remedy to support cardiovascular health
- Health practitioners who want to offer a natural support to those subjects with borderline levels of cholesterol
Preclinical evidence
In a preclinical efficacy and safety study with mice fed with a high fat diet plus ROSSOPURO® Forte or standard Red Yeast Rice, the bioactive compounds found in ROSSOPURO® Forte were found to work synergistically reducing total cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol, triglycerides and inflammation outperforming standard Red Yeast Rice (Derosa et al. 2019).
Results
Better lipid profile in the group supplemented with ROSSOPURO® Forte
Clinical evidence
The clinical efficacy of ROSSOPURO® Forte has been assessed in a randomized, double blind, placebo controlled trial where 88 adult subjects with borderline total cholesterol (TC) values (i.e., 200–239 mg/dL) and LDL-C values ≤159 mg/dL, equally divided into 2 groups, were supplemented with one capsule per day of active or placebo for 90 consecutive days. ROSSOPURO® Forte resulted in a significant reduction of both TC and LDL-C levels while HDL-C levels were significantly increased. These findings confirm the synergy found in our preclinical study in a mice model of hypercholesterolemia.
Results
Improved lipid profile in subjects supplemented with ROSSOPURO® Forte
