Nattokinase

- Nattokinase is an enzyme derived from fermented soybeans that has been the subject of dozens of human clinical trials to demonstrate its effective and safe use to support the cardiovascular system.
- Each capsule provides 100 mg (a minimum of 2000 F.U.; fibrinolytic units) to effectively thin blood and break up blood clots
- 60 vegetable capsules per bottle
Cardiovascular disease is one of the leading causes of death in Canada and is often referred to as the "silent killer" due to the absence of symptoms during disease progression. Although there are many identified risk factors for cardiovascular disease, abnormal blood clotting can be problematic in some people. Therefore, this specific population may benefit from any intervention that can help break up preformed blood clots or prevent new clots from forming.
Nattokinase is an enzyme derived from fermented soybeans that contains powerful health potential. Nattokinase has dozens of human clinical studies to demonstrate its safety and effectiveness in supporting the cardiovascular system, including healthy lipid balance, fibrinolytic activity, and lowered inflammatory markers. It has been widely studied for its ability to thin blood and break up blood clots.
Nattokinase achieves these cardiovascular benefits through multiple mechanisms. For example, increased fibrinolysis activity is well documented and the primary reason why nattokinase is able to improve blood flow. However, it has also been shown to inhibit platelet aggregation, reduce C-reactive protein, decrease renin, and reduce LDL cholesterol. Numerous safety studies in animals and humans have also confirmed that nattokinase is well tolerated in a wide variety of circumstances.
Cyto-Matrix Nattokinase delivers 100 mg per vegetable capsule of clinically studied NSK-SD® Nattokinase to effectively thin blood and break up blood clots. Each 100mg vegetable capsule offers the minimum equivalent of 2000 F.U. (fibrinolytic units) for optimal cardiovascular support. 60 vegetable capsules per bottle.
