Nattokinase is an enzyme extracted and purified from a Japanese food called
Natto. Natto is a cheese-like food made from fermented soybeans that has been
eaten in Japan for many years. It is thought by some to be a valuable tool in
minimizing the chances of developing heart and vascular diseases. Natto is
produced by fermentation by adding the bacterium Bacillus natto, a beneficial
bacteria, to boiled soybeans. The resulting nattokinase enzyme is produced when
the bacterium acts on the soybeans. While other soy foods contain enzymes, it is
only the natto preparation that contains the specific nattokinase enzyme.
Nattokinase is valued in the alternative medicine community as a clot-buster and
blood thinner, and is sometimes recommended as a substitute for daily aspirin
therapy.
