Revealed: the thousand-year-old secret of Japan

Nattokinase capsules from Unimedica contain in a plant-based capsule shell nattokinase, embedded in organic rice flour. Nattokinase is a fibrolytic enzyme extracted from natto. Natto itself comes from a traditional Japanese dish of boiled and fermented soya beans. The soya beans were originally wrapped in rice straw to trigger the fermentation.

For the nattokinase capsules from Unimedica, soybean extract is fermented at low temperature for 8 to 24 hours. Starter cultures with the bacteria strain Bacillus subtilis natto transform the soy beans in the ferment, with positive effects on our wellbeing.

What is nattokinase good for?

The enzymes of fermented foods have a reputation for positively influencing the bacteria in our gut. The enzyme nattokinase also has fibrinolytic properties i.e. it can degrade the protein fibrin, which is involved in blood clotting. So please be careful when taking blood thinners at the same time! In this case consult a doctor before taking this product.

Each capsule contains 100 mg of pure nattokinase. This corresponds to 2000 fibrinolytic units (FU), a high dose of this valuable enzyme.

Each bottle contains 120 capsules. This is enough for four months.
