How
does it work?
Nattokinase decreases the ability of
blood to clot. This "thins the blood"
and might protect against conditions caused by blood clots such as stroke, heart attack, and others.
TREATS
High
blood pressure. Research suggests that taking nattokinase (NSK II, Japan
Bio Sciences Laboratories Company Ltd., Japan) daily for
8 weeks can reduce blood
pressure in people with high
blood pressure.
Deep vein
thrombosis (DVT). There is some evidence that taking a specific combination
product (Flite Tabs) might decrease the chance of getting a blood clot in the
legs during long plane flights. This product combines a blend of 150 mg of
nattokinase plus pycnogenol. Two capsules are taken 2 hours before the flight and then again 6 hours later.
