Healthy inspiration from Japan: Understanding and using nattokinase

Nattokinase is an enzyme that occurs naturally in natto, a traditional Japanese dish made from fermented soybeans.

Natural production of nattokinase - tradition and craftsmanship: Natto is a traditional Japanese dish and is made by fermenting soybeans with  Bacillussubtilis natto . The process begins with boiling the beans, followed by the addition of the bacterium for fermentation. The beans are stored in a warm environment to complete the fermentation process. In addition to nattokinase, natto contains other proteases, soy isoflavones and probiotic bacteria. Natto, which has been known in Japan for over 1000 years, is often produced there and is an integral part of the diet.

Processing and use: The concentrated enzyme is dried and ground into a fine powder or processed into capsules/tablets.

Nattokinase and the FU unit - Fibrinolytic properties:

The fibrinolytic units (FU) of nattokinase are a unit of measurement for the enzymatic activity of this protein. The higher the number of FU, the stronger the fibrinolytic activity of nattokinase. In food supplements, the amount of nattokinase is often stated in FU per gram or per capsule. The indication in FU is a good way to evaluate the strength and quality of a nattokinase preparation.

Why nattokinase without vitamin K and without vitamin K2?

Our nattokinase formula has been specifically developed to ensure maximum purity and versatility. By deliberately omitting vitamin K and K2, we enable flexible integration into your personal diet without affecting your vitamin K intake. This is particularly relevant for people who take blood-thinning medication and require precise control of their vitamin K intake . Vitamin K plays an essential role in the regulation of blood clotting. Because our Nattokinase does not contain vitamin K, we can rule out negative interactions with the enzyme.

The correct dosage of nattokinase

We recommend a daily intake of 2,000 FU, which corresponds toaround 100 mg of nattokinase . Higher dosages, which have been used in some studies, are currently not recommended.

Absorption in the body

Nattokinase is an enzyme that, similar to bromelain from pineapple, can break down proteins. Although nattokinase is comparatively large, it can at least partially penetrate the intestinal mucosa. If you take nattokinase in capsule form, it or its active ingredients are absorbed in the intestine through the intestinal mucosa into the bloodstream .

When should Nattokinase be taken?

For optimal effectiveness of nattokinase, it is recommended to take the enzyme on an empty stomach. This is because food or other supplements can impair the absorption and effect of nattokinase. Taking it on an empty stomach allows for better absorption through the intestinal mucosa and allows the enzyme to be absorbed more effectively into the bloodstream. This approach maximizes the chances of making optimal use of the fibrinolytic properties of nattokinase. However, it is advisable to consider individual needs and tolerances and consult a doctor if necessary.

Is nattokinase banned?

Contrary to some speculation and misunderstandings,  Nattokinase isby no means banned. On the contrary, as a manufacturer of dietary supplements, we value the unique benefits of this natural enzyme. Our high-quality nattokinase products comply with legal regulations and enable our customers to benefit from the many advantages of this enzyme. We place great emphasis on transparency and quality assurance to ensure that our nattokinase supplements are a safe and effective addition to your diet.
