Now Nattokinase is an enzyme extracted from natto, a traditional Japanese fermented soy food that has been eaten for centuries due to its numerous health benefits. Clinical and non-clinical research has suggested that nattokinase can aid in supporting heart and cardiovascular health through aiding normal clotting functions. This NOW® Nattokinase product is sourced from non-GMO soy and has a potency of 2,000 Fibrinolytic Units per 100 mg serving. Please note that natural colour variation is common.

Now Nattokinase provides nattokinase, an enzyme derived from natto, the traditional fermented soy food. Nattokinase is commonly used for cardiovascular support and healthy blood flow, which is why it is usually taken on its own rather than as part of a general multivitamin. The product gives 2,000 FU per capsule, which is a standard way of expressing enzyme activity.
This is a focused ingredient with a specific job. Research on nattokinase has mainly looked at circulation and fibrin breakdown, so it is often chosen by people who want targeted support for blood flow rather than broad heart nutrition. Because nattokinase is soy-derived and is often taken with an empty stomach, those are the most useful details to know before buying.
